The government's compensation for adverse reactions after vaccination is ongoing.
[Kim Ki-Nam/Vaccination Planning Team Leader: After vaccination, we decided to compensate for a total of 166 cases, including those treated for adverse reactions such as fever, headache, allergic reaction, anaphylaxis, etc.]
166 cases are equivalent to 87% of the 190 cases that were deliberated.
The remaining 24 cases were not eligible for compensation because they were not causal or were more likely to be caused by factors other than vaccination, such as pneumonia or cerebral hemorrhage.
The government has a policy of quickly compensating for damages that are recognized as causal.
