Podcast on Vaccine Court decision on autism award.

In a stunning bit of news it was widely reported yesterday that the U.S. Government through the auspices of the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program and HRSA conceded damages in the first landmark autism case to reach the special masters, awarding damages in the Hanna Poling vs HHS. kevinconway.jpg

Scott Drake of The Legal Broadcast Network interviews one of the nations leading vaccine lawyers, Kevin Conway of the Conway, Homer & Chin Kaplan firm in Boston, MA. to discuss this important ruling and what it means to the 5000 or more parents of children who are contending that vaccines were a cause of their child's autism. This debate has raged for years, but just recently this test case was winding it's way through the vaccine injury program and the governments surprise decision to concede damages, but yet not providing the rationale for this decision, has only increased the confusion.

If you are a parent of an autistic child or are an attorney who has vaccine cases being brought to your office under the autism claims argument, be sure to listen to this brief podcast to learn more about what the ruling in this case means.
