Serious mass adverse events (John Campbell)

“Government Response to the Covid-19 Inquiry Module 4 Report”

The Government said it would respond within six months.

The Government’s response was published on 16 October, this debate was to scrutinise it.

Rupert Lowe (Great Yarmouth)
Argued that people were pressured into taking unproven drugs, that refusing the vaccine meant risking their livelihood, and that the teenage vaccination rollout was pushed through against the advice of the JCVI. He described vaccine passports as criminal.

Sir Christopher Chope
Government must reform the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme ASAP.

Introduced a related Private Members’ Bill.

Cost of administering the scheme had risen from £8.9 million in 2022–23 to £29.2 million in 2025–26

Over 24,000 claims had been made since the pandemic began.

Esther McVey
Raised concerns about pro-vaccination bias in the Covid-19 Inquiry itself,

cited cases of severe adverse events in care home residents following vaccination (including fatalities),

and argued the MHRA had failed in its statutory duties.

Other MPs drew parallels between covid vaccine injury and the infected blood scandal, highlighting what they described as a pattern of initial government denial followed eventually by acknowledgment.
