Intussusception Following Rotavirus Vaccination

Intussusception is a type of bowel obstruction that can happen after a rotavirus vaccine. What happens is a portion of the intestine gets sucked into another part of the intestines. Medical professionals sometimes call this process “telescoping” because a strip of the bowel becomes stuck up inside another layer of bowel.

Intussusception can lead to serious complications. It can cause food and fluid to get stuck inside the intestines, it can cut off circulation to a portion of the intestine, and can also cause the bowel to tear.

Are You Eligible to File a Vaccine Injury Claim?

There are some basic requirements to be eligible to file a claim in the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program:

1. The vaccine must be one of the types listed on the Vaccine Injury Table by the VICP. 
2. The claim must be filed within the statute of limitations. That means you have a short window of time to file a claim. 
3. The vaccine injury must last for at least 6 months after the vaccination was given.
4. Or, the reaction to the vaccination resulted in a hospital stay and surgery
5. Or, the reaction must have resulted in death. 
6. You must file a claim within a certain period of time. There is a statute of limitations to file in the VICP. It’s best to discuss this with an attorney to know when the clock on your case started ticking.

How Our Vaccine Injury Attorneys Can Help

Mctlaw currently represents hundreds of vaccine injury patients across the United States.

The attorneys at mctlaw have won more than $300-million in vaccine injury payouts and 100% of that money went directly to our clients. Our clients never pay a legal fee for our services, and we do not take any part of their financial award.

Not all attorneys are able to practice law before the Federal Vaccine Court. That’s why you should hire an attorney with extensive experience in this area of law. These are not simple personal injury cases. They are medically and scientifically complex.

More Information About the Rotavirus Immunization

The rotavirus vaccine is given in 2 or 3 separate doses. The first dose is delivered at 2 months old and the second dose at 4 months old. The third dose, if applicable, is given at 6 months old.

There are currently two different types of rotavirus vaccines used in the United States: RotaTeq and Rotarix. Both of the rotavirus vaccines are given orally and cannot be administered after 8 months of age.

RotaTeq (RV5): The RotaTeq vaccine, also known as RV5, is distributed in three separate doses.

Rotarix (RV1): The Rotarix vaccine, also called RV1, is administered in two separate doses.

I can’t recommend this firm enough. They have an outstanding team that truly care for their clients…I have been awarded a fair six figure settlement.

Nate M.

When I say “they went to bat” for me…this Law Firm literally did just that. They persevered to bring the hard-nosed Manufacturer to settle and provide me some recompense for everything I had to endure which led to this suit.
