European experiences and Croatian perspectives of compensation programs in case of childhood vaccine injury

Health is considered a basic human right without which it is impossible to achieve life ends. Efficient and justly exercise of the right to health is one of the most important tasks of modern societies. Childhood vaccination is one of the health care measures that aims to protect health although in rare cases it may cause long- term health problems. In this paper, we attempt to present the role of justice in the protection of children’s health in cases of its impairment caused by vaccines. The paper will express the view that no-fault compensation system serves to social justice goals in protection of the most vulnerable members of society and at the same time to discourage long and expensive litigation’s.
