If you or a loved one were injured or suffered complications after receiving the flu vaccine, you may be entitled to compensation from a flu vaccine injury lawsuit case or settlement claim.
A team of vaccine injury lawyers and attorneys is investigating potential vaccine injury lawsuit cases and settlement claims involving individuals who were injured or died after receiving the flu vaccine or flu shot.
Influenza (the flu) is a contagious respiratory disease caused by the influenza A and B flu viruses that can infect the nose, throat, and lungs resulting in mild to severe illness or complications (including, among others, fever, chills, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle or body aches, sinus and ear infections, headaches, fatigue, vomiting, diarrhea, organ failure, pneumonia and sometimes death).
The seasonal flu vaccine is given by injection (i.e., a flu shot of inactivated influenza vaccines IIV or recombinant influenza vaccines RIV, that do not contain live viruses) or by nasal spray (that contains live, attenuated flu vaccine LAIV, i.e., live flu viruses that are weakened).
According to the CDC, hundreds of millions of Americans have safely been provided flu vaccines for more than 50 years, but like any medicine the flu vaccine can have side effects, both mild and severe.
