The list below follows HRSA's current covered categories

The injury examples come from the Vaccine Injury Table effective for petitions filed on or after January 3, 2022. A condition is a Table injury only when the listed vaccine, onset period, and federal definition all match.

• Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis Vaccines

  Combination products include DTaP, DTP, Tdap, DT, Td, and related formulations. Depending on the components, Table injuries can include anaphylaxis, brachial neuritis after tetanus-toxoid-containing vaccines, encephalopathy or encephalitis after pertussis-containing vaccines, SIRVA, and vasovagal syncope. Timing and definitions vary by injury. Review the Tdap and DTaP vaccine guide and the Tdap and DTaP vaccine attorney page.

• Tetanus-Containing Vaccines

  Tetanus-toxoid-containing vaccines have a Table presumption for anaphylaxis within four hours, brachial neuritis from 2 through 28 days, SIRVA within 48 hours, and vasovagal syncope within one hour when the federal definitions are met. The tetanus vaccine guide explains the category, and the tetanus vaccine attorney page addresses claim evaluation.

• Haemophilus Influenzae Type b Vaccines

  Hib conjugate vaccines are covered. The current Table lists SIRVA within 48 hours and vasovagal syncope within one hour. Other alleged injuries may be evaluated off-Table, but coverage of the vaccine does not prove that it caused the condition. See the Hib vaccine guide and the Hib vaccine attorney page.

• Hepatitis A Vaccines

  Hepatitis A vaccines are covered by the VICP. The current Table lists SIRVA within 48 hours and vasovagal syncope within one hour. It does not list a broad presumption for neurologic or autoimmune conditions after hepatitis A vaccination. Those claims require individualized proof. Read the hepatitis A vaccine guide and the hepatitis A vaccine attorney page.

• Hepatitis B Vaccines

  Hepatitis B vaccines are covered. The current Table lists anaphylaxis within four hours, SIRVA within 48 hours, and vasovagal syncope within one hour. A different diagnosis can still be considered off-Table when reliable medical and expert evidence supports causation. Review the hepatitis B vaccine guide and the hepatitis B vaccine attorney page.

• Human Papillomavirus Vaccines

  HPV vaccines are covered. The current Table lists anaphylaxis within four hours, SIRVA within 48 hours, and vasovagal syncope within one hour. Conditions such as CRPS, autoimmune disease, or neurologic disorders are not automatically presumed merely because they began after vaccination. See the HPV vaccine guide and the HPV vaccine attorney page.

• Seasonal Influenza Vaccines

  Seasonal influenza vaccines are covered for children and adults, including products licensed only for adults. The Table lists anaphylaxis within four hours, SIRVA within 48 hours, vasovagal syncope within one hour, and Guillain-Barre syndrome from 3 through 42 days. Nonseasonal pandemic flu vaccines are not VICP-covered. Visit the flu vaccine guide and the flu vaccine attorney page.

• Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Vaccines

  MMR, MMRV, and covered component vaccines can involve several Table provisions. These include anaphylaxis, encephalopathy or encephalitis from 5 through 15 days, SIRVA, vasovagal syncope, chronic arthritis after a rubella-containing vaccine, thrombocytopenic purpura after a measles-containing vaccine, and defined vaccine-strain measles disease. Read the MMR vaccine guide and the MMR vaccine attorney page.

• Meningococcal Vaccines

  Meningococcal vaccines covered under HRSA's current guidance are included in the VICP. The Table lists anaphylaxis within four hours, SIRVA within 48 hours, and vasovagal syncope within one hour. Other conditions require off-Table proof. Review the meningitis vaccine guide and the meningitis vaccine attorney page.

• Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccines

  Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines, or PCVs, are covered. The current Table lists SIRVA within 48 hours and vasovagal syncope within one hour. The exact product matters because pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines are excluded from the VICP. See the PCV vaccine guide and the PCV vaccine attorney page.

• Pneumococcal Vaccine Coverage by Type

  The term pneumococcal vaccine does not identify whether the dose was a covered conjugate vaccine or a noncovered polysaccharide vaccine. The administration record should show the product and formulation. The pneumococcal vaccine guide and pneumococcal vaccine attorney page provide the next level of review.

• Is the Pneumonia Shot Covered by the VICP?

  Pneumonia shot is an informal label, not a legal category. A PCV product may be covered; a PPSV product is not currently covered by the VICP. Do not decide eligibility from the everyday name alone. Check the pneumonia vaccine guide and the pneumonia vaccine attorney page after confirming the product.

• Polio Vaccines

  Both oral polio vaccine and inactivated polio vaccine appear in the Table, although oral polio vaccine is no longer used routinely in the United States. OPV provisions address paralytic polio and vaccine-strain infection. IPV provisions include anaphylaxis, SIRVA, and vasovagal syncope. Review the polio vaccine guide and the polio vaccine attorney page.

• Rotavirus Vaccines

  Rotavirus vaccines are covered. Intussusception is the listed Table injury when onset occurs from 1 through 21 days and the federal definition is met. The Table excludes onset with or after the third dose and includes other exclusions tied to infection, anatomy, and underlying conditions. Read the rotavirus vaccine guide and the rotavirus vaccine attorney page.

• Varicella Vaccines

  Varicella, or chickenpox, vaccines are covered. Table injuries include anaphylaxis, defined disseminated vaccine-strain varicella disease, vaccine-strain viral reactivation, SIRVA, and vasovagal syncope. Strain testing and timing can be decisive for viral-disease claims. See the chickenpox vaccine guide and the varicella vaccine attorney page.
