A Greek court convicts the state after a death linked to COVID-19 vaccines. The ruling is seen as a historic breakthrough and could open the way for more lawsuits. For many victims, it raises hopes for redress.
A court in Athens has ordered the Greek state to pay €300,000 to the family of a woman who died after being vaccinated against COVID-19. The ruling is described as a breakthrough and could have implications for similar cases in Europe.
The woman died after suffering serious complications from taking the AstraZeneca vaccine. The court ruled that the State was liable and ordered damages to the relatives.
According to Athens News the court found that there was a link between the vaccination and the death, which was the basis for the compensation.
This is an unusual decision, as in many countries the state has so far avoided liability in cases related to COVID-19 vaccines.
New victory for victims
The ruling comes shortly after other legal breakthroughs on vaccine injuries in Europe and is seen as another sign that the issue is now starting to be seriously considered in courts.
Many observers believe that the decision could open the door for more families to seek redress. According to Novinite the €300,000 compensation is one of the most high-profile decisions to date in a European vaccine injury case.
Could pave the way for more cases
The case also raises questions about liability when the state recommends or runs vaccination programs, but victims are later left without support.
As more cases reach the courts, pressure may increase on other countries to reconsider how vaccine injuries are handled. The verdict has been described on social media as a possible turning point.
”It's starting.”, writes the X-profile PeterSweden on X.
For the relatives, the judgment is about compensation. For others, it could be something bigger: a first sign that accountability is now starting to be demanded even on issues long considered closed.
It was time for accountability.
But this is NOT the responsibility of the State, but
The Responsible Pharmaceutical Companies.
They are the real culprits.
They raked in thousands of billions of dollars even though they KNEW they were peddling deadly stuff. With government help.
If I knew about this already at the end of February 2020, everyone else must have known about it too.
But it showed that MY channels (like this one, for example) were right from the start.

Dr. Dave Martin explain it very good in EU Parliament.
