UK COVID Inquiry Calls to DOUBLE Compensation for Injection Injuries

The Chair of the UK COVID-19 Inquiry—in findings first reported by The Telegraph and The Times—is calling for compensation for COVID injection injuries to be doubled, acknowledging that those harmed have not been adequately supported.

In her formal findings, Inquiry Chair Baroness Heather Hallett recommended increasing payouts under the UK’s Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme from £120,000 to £200,000—an extraordinary admission that the current system is failing those suffering serious, life-altering injuries.

This recommendation follows mounting evidence and testimony from individuals who experienced severe adverse outcomes after receiving COVID injections.

Official Inquiry Acknowledges Injury

The inquiry confirmed that a number of individuals were seriously harmed—and in some cases died—following COVID injections administered during the pandemic response.

Baroness Hallett’s recommendation to double compensation signals a clear shift: governments can no longer ignore those reporting injury. At the same time, the inquiry found that many victims have faced significant barriers in accessing support, including restrictive eligibility criteria and prolonged delays.

UK Data Points to Scale of Adverse Events

Separate UK safety monitoring has raised further concerns.

Data collected through the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) indicates that in one monitored cohort, approximately 1 in 7 participants reported a “medically serious” adverse event following COVID injections.

These events include outcomes such as hospitalization, significant disability and other clinically serious conditions.

While drawn from a defined reporting group, the findings add to growing questions about the scale of injury—and whether it has been fully acknowledged.

Mandates and Loss of Public Trust

The UK inquiry also recognized that pandemic policies, including mandates, contributed to public distrust and increased hesitancy.

The report warns that future public health responses must account for transparency, consent and the broader societal consequences of coercive measures.

Canada’s VIAP: Silence, Delays and Lack of Accountability

In Canada, the federal Vaccine Injury Support Program (VIAP) was introduced as a no-fault system for those reporting serious harm following COVID injections.

Yet unlike the UK—where an official inquiry is now acknowledging injury and calling for increased compensation—Canada has failed to conduct any comparable public review.

Ongoing concerns include:

  • Lack of transparency in how claims are evaluated
  • Significant delays in processing applications
  • Limited public reporting on outcomes
  • Barriers for injured individuals seeking support

For many Canadians, the program remains opaque, slow and difficult to navigate—raising serious questions about whether those reporting harm are being adequately recognized.

A Turning Point

The UK inquiry does not determine liability. But it does mark a turning point.

An official government-led investigation has now acknowledged injuryand called for substantially increased compensation.

At the same time, emerging safety data continues to expose the scale of adverse events.

Together, these developments are intensifying pressure on governments, including Canada, to confront the reality of COVID injection injuries—and the systems meant to address them.
