@JNTHN_LCKWD Yes liability. Yes accountability.
The NCVIA was created as a means to give people who have rare serious reactions from vaccines a quicker, easier & cheaper way to get compensated rather than be forced into expensive, lengthy & impossible to win civil trials.

@JNTHN_LCKWD Of course anyone can still file a lawsuit if they would like. 
@JNTHN_LCKWD Interesting to note that while compensated cases show true serious reactions to vaccines are one in a million, 50% of those compensated since 2017 weren't even for vaccine injuries but from shoulder injuries due to improper placement of the syringe.

@JNTHN_LCKWD And of course we are only focused on the USA when you can sue even before any vaccine court in other parts of the world.
Vaccine manufacturers ARE liable and accountable.

@JNTHN_LCKWD If you would prefer to force families into civil lawsuits first, please consider the differences.
And FYI, the $ for the vaccine court is taken from the vaccine manufacturers, who are responsible for it by law.

@JNTHN_LCKWD Thank you for showing how rare serious reactions are with your figures on your blog!
From 2006 to 2016 over 3.1 billion doses of vaccines were distributed in the U.S. 5,517 petitions were adjudicated by the Court, and of those 3,737 were compensated.

@JNTHN_LCKWD This means for every 1 million doses of vaccine that were distributed, 1 individual was compensated.
This is an INCREDIBLE safety record, and one almost no medical intervention or drug in human history can boast.

@JNTHN_LCKWD And even more amazingly, while vaccine preventable diseases have caused deaths in the last decade, there hasn't been a medically confirmed death from a vaccine in the USA in the last decade.
