Flu vaccines are comprised of different strains each year. There are many flu viruses, many more than a single vaccine could protect against. Each year, scientists from the Center For Disease Control and the Food and Drug Administration attempt to determine what vaccine strains will be prevalent during the following flu season. Flu vaccines are then manufactured based on those educated guesses. Consequently, the influenza vaccine ingredients can vary from year to year. Some years, the flu vaccine is more effective than others in preventing individuals from suffering with the flu vaccine.
Seasonal flu season can run from as early as October to as late as May. Not everyone should receive a flu shot. Those who have allergies to eggs should consult with their physician before receiving a flu vaccine. In addition, people who have previously suffered from a severe allergic reaction after receiving the flu shot should generally avoid vaccination. It is also recommended that those who are suffering from a moderate to severe illness, with or without fever, should wait until they have recovered before receiving their flu vaccination. People who have had Guillain-Barre Syndrome should not receive a flu shot without consulting with their physician. If you have received a flu shot and developed Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) or the more chronic form Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP) in the days or weeks later should contact the Law Offices of Leah V. Durant PLLC today. Vaccine cases involving flu vaccine and GBS/CIDP are common and are often successful. Compensation can be awarded for past and future medical care, pain and suffering lost wages. In addition, any Medicaid liens can be discharged. The Vaccine Injury Compensation Program pays for your attorney, not the client who has suffered from GBS or CIDP so call the Law office of Leah V. Durant, PLLC today.
You cannot get the flu from receiving a flu shot. However, there are some medically accepted side effects. These include serious disease processes such as Guillain-Barre Syndrome, or GBS. Other recognized side effects include permanent shoulder injuries related to the administration of the vaccine, also known as SIRVA. Less serious symptoms such as runny nose, wheezing, headaches, vomiting, muscle aches, cough, sore throat, and fever have all been reported after flu vaccines. Allergic reactions, particularly for those who have severe egg allergies, have also been associated with flu vaccines. As with any vaccine, receiving a flu shot can result in soreness, swelling and redness at the injection site.

The Court decides the amount of fees and costs to which your vaccine attorney is entitled and this amount is separate and apart from the amount awarded to claimants for their vaccine injuries. There is no contingency arrangement permitted and the vaccine attorney’s fees are entirely determined by a judge or special master of the Court of Federal Claims and paid from the government-administered trust fund.
