Country pays out $45 million to victims of COVID vaccines
Nearly 16,000 claims so far of injury from shot
The government of Thailand has paid more than $45 million as compensation to people who developed illnesses and injuries after receiving COVID=19 vaccine shots.
Thailand’s National Health Security Office said last week that from May 19, 2021, to March 8, 2022, a total of 15,933 people had filed complaints of negative reactions to COVID-19 vaccines.
The NHSO rejected 2,328 complaints after the agency ruled that the side-effects were not related to the vaccinations.
