Rotavirus — VICP cases

This page indexes every case in the VICP Registry where the alleged injury is connected to the Rotavirus vaccine. There are 121 such cases on file: 61 compensated, 21 deaths, total compensation $9,831,157.57.

What the record shows: The VICP has decided 121 cases naming the Rotavirus vaccine since 2014. 61 (50%) ended in compensation, with a median award of $53,299. The median time from petition filing to decision was 19.4 months. The condition category appearing most often in these petitions was Other / multiple. Figures are computed from the published court decisions indexed on this page; every case links to its original source document. Compensation reflects the court's application of the program's legal standards to an individual claim — it is not a medical or scientific finding about vaccines generally.
