How does an injury from the HIB vaccine occur?
The Haemophilus Influenzae Type B (Hib) vaccine is a combination vaccine that helps protect against Hib disease. It is given as a series of shots, usually starting when a baby is two months old.
Different types of HIB vaccines are available, and they are all considered safe and effective. However, as with any vaccine, there is a risk of side effects. In some cases, these side effects can be serious and even life-threatening. Some of the most common HIB vaccine injuries include:
- Anaphylaxis
- Seizures
- SIRVA
- High fever
- Severe allergic reaction
- Redness, swelling, and irritation at the injection site
- Other vaccine injuries
Suppose you or a loved one has experienced these injuries after receiving the HIB vaccine. In that case, you may be entitled to compensation.
Diagnosing and Treating a HIB Vaccine Injury
Trying to diagnose and treat a HIB Vaccine Injury can feel overwhelming, yet there are accessible solutions. Seeking out medical experts is essential in identifying the vaccine injury's symptoms correctly and verifying the diagnosis, as well as deciding on an efficient course of treatment. Depending on the case, this may include physical therapy, pain management strategies, or antibiotics. With careful supervision and a strict adherence to the recommended treatments, those with vaccine injuries can ultimately conquer their condition and enjoy increased mobility and comfort in life.
Why are HIB vaccine injuries serious?
A vaccine injury may result in symptoms such as fever, seizures and neurological damage that can have life-long repercussions for both adults and children. The potential advantages of a HIB vaccine far outweigh the slight risk of sustaining an injury from it, as this vaccination can prevent life-threatening illnesses. Prior to making the decision to vaccinate yourself or your family, it is prudent to consult with a trusted healthcare provider about any questions or worries you may have.
How we can help with your HIB vaccine injury claim
Injuries from vaccines can change your life, and you may be qualified to receive financial compensation through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP).

At My Vaccine Lawyer, our team can help you file a claim and guide you through the entire process with the VICP if you have suffered from vaccine-related injuries.
