I got the coronavirus shot back when they were just starting to do them and I’ve had shoulders pains ever since and they keep getting worse. What do I do about this leagully?
A:
If you believe your shoulder pain is directly related to the coronavirus vaccination, it's important to first consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and treatment options. Documenting your symptoms, their progression, and any treatments attempted is crucial. This documentation can be vital if you decide to pursue legal action.
For legal advice, contacting an attorney who is experienced in medical or vaccine-related cases is advisable. They can provide guidance on the validity of your claim and the steps necessary for litigation, including any relevant deadlines or documentation required. Legal representation can help navigate the complexities of vaccine injury claims.
Additionally, consider researching the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) if you're in the United States. This program provides compensation to individuals who have experienced adverse effects from vaccines. Understanding your rights and the compensation process can aid in making informed decisions about pursuing a claim.
