Update Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme to reflect inflation and disability costs

Petition Details

Increase the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme (VDPS) payment, last set at £120,000 in 2007, to reflect inflation and the real cost of living with severe vaccine injury, and ensure it is reviewed regularly to remain fair and up to date.

Additional Information

We believe that payments must increase beyond inflation, and that the amount should be set to cover the lifelong care, loss of income, and ongoing expenses faced by those living with 60% or greater disability. Regular reviews should ensure future fairness and adequacy.
