US vaccine payout provokes confusion
The US Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) will pay over $1.5 million to the family of a child whose parents allege was harmed by a vaccine in YEAR-TK. CBS called the payment to the family of Hannah Poling the “first court award in a vaccine-autism claim,” (9 September 2010, CBS).
However, the payment does not acknowledge a vaccine-autism link.
