9 people who were under 18 when they were vaccinated against covid-19 have received compensation for the side effects they experienced from the vaccine.

This is a very small portion of the many thousands of children who received the vaccine.

During 2021 and 2022, more than half a million children between the ages of 5 and 17 received at least one vaccine dose.

For those aged 5 to 11, this applied to 210,095, while for those aged 12 to 15, it applied to 247,225.

We do not have exact figures for those aged 16-17.

In total, there are 78 cases involving children who received the covid-19 vaccine and have sought compensation for side effects. Of these, 9 have received compensation, while 67 have been rejected. One case has not yet been decided, according to figures from the Patient Compensation Association.
