‘The system wants you to give up’: Widow calls for vaccine compensation scheme reform

The family of an NHS pharmacist who took his own life after being left severely disabled following a covid vaccination say the Government’s vaccine compensation scheme is failing victims. John Cross developed paralysing complications after receiving a Covid jab but was initially denied a payout under the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme. After a legal challenge by his family, the decision was overturned. His widow is now calling for urgent reform of the vaccine damage scheme. #covid #vaccine #health #nhs #uknews #skynews SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel for more videos: http://www.youtube.com/skynews Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/skynews Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/skynews Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skynews Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@skynews For more content go to http://news.sky.com and download our apps: Apple https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/sky-news/id316391924?mt=8 Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bskyb.skynews.android&hl=en_GB Listen to our new podcast This is Why, available for free here: https://podfollow.com/thisiswhy To enquire about licensing Sky News content, you can find more information here: https://news.sky.com/info/library-sales
