What is Hepatitis A?

Hepatitis A is a viral infection of the liver that is spread through feces‑infected food/water or close contact with a person already infected by the virus. It is a more common problem in parts of the world that suffer from poor sanitation and a shortage of safe water sources.

In the United States, hepatitis A vaccines were first administered in the mid-1990’s—initially to children in high‑risk areas and then to children living in regions of increasing infection levels. When paired with a booster injection, hepatitis A immunizations are effective for an estimated 20 years. For children, the recommended age for a hepatitis A vaccination is between one and two years old. It is also recommended for non‑immunized adults who will be traveling outside the country.

What Kind of Injuries Can a Hepatitis A Vaccination Cause?

It is not uncommon to suffer soreness, headaches, loss of appetite and fatigue following a hepatitis A vaccination. Generally, these symptoms will disappear after a couple of days. In rare instances, severe and life‑threatening allergic reactions can develop.

Common Adverse Reactions Following Hepatitis A Vaccination

Adverse vaccine reactions are most common in children between one and two; they can also impact at-risk individuals. The vaccine protects from diseases but can also lead to severe adverse reactions and long-term health complications. Severe allergic reactions and anaphylactic shocks are also possible. These can typically be treated at local area hospitals.

Guillain-Barre syndrome

This is an autoimmune condition that attacks the nervous system. It can lead to nerve damage. Often, sufferers experience symptoms like tingling, weakness, and numbness. In some severe cases, you can experience paralysis. Many times, it impacts people who are recovering from an infection. If you suffer GBS after a Hepatitis A vaccine, then you should consult with our nationwide vaccine injury attorney.

Other reactions and side effects that have been documented include seizures, neuropathy, and multiple sclerosis. There is still debate about whether these injuries are correlated to the vaccine. However, these injuries have been reported in the Vaccine Injury Adverse Event Reporting System. Various federal health agencies use these reports to monitor vaccine safety. If you have been diagnosed with any of these, speak to a Hepatitis A vaccine injury attorney.

Hepatitis A: Understanding Your Legal Rights and Options

Aside from the health implications of Hepatitis A, you can also suffer monetary losses. Some financial recovery you may be eligible for includes:

  • Medical costs for the treatment of the injury and physical rehabilitation
  • Diminished earning capacity in some instances
  • Lost wages if your condition causes you to miss work
  • Pain and suffering

You can pursue compensation from the federal government. As you might imagine, this is a challenging process, but we can help you assess your damages and file a claim. Speak to the team at Jeffrey S. Pop & Associates.

Common Answers To Your Questions

  • What Vaccines Are Covered by the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program?
  • How to File a Vaccine Claim?

    An individual can file a claim without legal representation. The government utilizes Department of Justice (DOJ) attorneys who defend each case. Therefore, it is wise to retain an experienced and reliable vaccine injury attorney to assist you through the process and who can make sure the rules and guidelines of the court be followed that the Special Masters (Judges) require.

  • What is a Vaccine Injury Lawsuit?

    There are two types of lawsuits possible for a vaccine injury. 

    1. The most common is a Petition (complaint) filed before the United States Court of Federal Claims (”USCFC”) in Washington D.C. These cases are always defended by the Department of Justice (DOJ) attorneys in the Vaccine Division. The DOJ employs approximately 35 attorneys. The Vaccine Division of the USCFC has 8 full-time Special Masters (Judges) who hear these cases. To file a federal case under the Vaccine Injury Program, it is wise to retain an experienced vaccine law firm to assist you as many cases need to be supported by expert medical testimony in order to succeed. Additionally, experienced attorneys know the potential value of a case when weighing the risk and likely compensation during settlement negotiations. 

    2. The second type of vaccine lawsuit is under State Law for products liability, or personal injury. It involves paying the cost for experts and depositions and varying legal standards. It may be more difficult to prove with respect to those vaccines not covered by the Vaccine Injury Compensation Act. For now, the traditional court system may be the only legal recourse available for non-covered vaccines. The exception to this is for Covid-19 cases. Sadly, Covid-19 cases are covered by the very restrictive Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) which is nonjudicial. Our law firm does not represent individuals in any administrative nonjudicial program.

  • Do I have a Case for Damages?

    Our law firm will advise you whether you have a case. It depends upon the type of vaccination you received, the timing of the adverse reaction, your current diagnosis, and whether you have achieved recovery. In complicated cases, an expert medical opinion will be necessary to determine the viability of a case.

  • How Can I Get Help After a Vaccine Injury?

    The Vaccine Injury Compensation Act established the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). This Act covers cases involving 17 different vaccines as indicated on the “Types of Vaccines” tab of our website.  

    Assuming that the vaccine that caused your injury or illness is covered by the Vaccine Injury Compensation Act, you have come to the right place. 

    Experienced vaccine attorneys, such as those in our law firm, will gather the medical documentation and vaccine administration record necessary to complete a Petition for filing in the United States Court of Federal Claims (USCFC). Additionally, we will attempt to answer all of your questions during this process.

  • What is a Vaccine Injury?

    Vaccine injuries refer to any adverse events that are caused by avaccination. For instance, a vaccine injury can be caused by the wrongful administration of a vaccine. Alternatively, an autoimmune response to the ingredients of the vaccine may cause an adverse event. These types of adverse reactions are rare, but at times painful or quite serious and potentially even catastrophic.
