On the day when Astrazeneca announces the worldwide withdrawal of its vaccine against Covid-19 and the withdrawal of the marketing authorizations for Vaxzevria in Europe, on Codacons announces a victory in terms of damage from anti-Covid vaccination, obtained on behalf of a citizen who was today awarded compensation for the serious adverse reactions suffered following the administration of the Astrazeneca vaccine. This was communicated by the consumer association itself, making it known that the ASL 3 of Genoa and the Hospital Medical Commission of La Spezia have given “the green light for a large compensation in favor of a Genoese citizen who underwent the Astrazeneca anti-Covid vaccination in 2021, immediately reporting serious adverse reactions”.
The case in Genoa
Specifically FEP (these are the initials of the 37 year old citizen resident in Genoa) “on 26.3.2021 he underwent the first dose of the Astrazeneca vaccine – reconstructs Codacons who legally followed the matter – Two weeks after the injection a hematoma appears on the left hemithorax, and the situation worsens after the second dose of the vaccine, occurred on 10.6.2021, when he noticed red spots on his ankles and bruises on his buttocks. He went to the emergency room of the San Martino hospital in Genoa, where he was hospitalized and medical tests revealed immune-mediated thrombocytopenia (ITP), a disease characterized by the drastic reduction in the number of circulating platelets due to their destruction and suppression of production. And again on 11.26.2021, “complete occlusion of the basilic vein on the right in its humeral section due to TVS and complete occlusion of the cephalic vein in the forearm section due to TVS” was diagnosed. Pathologies which, in addition to hospitalization and frequent medical checks, will force the citizen to undergo specific treatments and therapies based on cortisone”.
The patient then turns to Codacons to obtain legal assistance, with the association starting the process aimed at obtaining compensation for vaccination damage provided for by law 210/92. The Military Legal Medicine Department of La Spezia, territorially competent, at the request of ASL 3 acquired the documentation and, after having subjected the citizen to a health assessment, “has now established the causal link between vaccination and the onset of the reported pathologies – explains Codacons – writing in the minutes that ‘The onset of chronic immune-mediated thrombocytopenia (ITP) which affected Mr. FEP a few days after the first vaccination procedure with the Astrazeneca vaccine for Covid-19 certainly constitutes a serious adverse reaction (harmful and unintentional response to a vaccination for which it is possible to establish a causal or concausal relationship with the vaccination itself) potentially triggered by the procedure itself, in a previously healthy subject‘”.
The ASL 3 of Genoa and the Hospital Medical Commission of La Spezia have thus given the green light to the compensation due to the citizen for damage caused by vaccination, “considered the ‘permanent impairment of psychophysical integrity’, with a lifetime compensation in the form of a bimonthly check of an amount equal, according to the latest ministerial tables, to 1740.77 euros”, reports Codacons.
