60 Minutes Vaccine Court Report, Injury Compensation Program
A 60 Minutes report examined the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, a "no-fault" court that has paid out $5 billion since the 1980s. The program is funded by a 75-cent tax on vaccines and shields manufacturers from liability. Critics note that COVID-19 vaccines are notably excluded from the program's table of injuries, and the court has previously ruled against a link between vaccines and autism.
