In a time when the entire world is grappling with the side effects and deaths associated with various COVID-19 vaccines, it is disheartening to witness a lack of concern when it comes to ensuring justice and accountability. Recently, in India, the Supreme Court dismissed a plea regarding COVID-19 vaccine side effects, raising questions about the transparency and fairness in handling such important issues.
The Supreme Court’s decision to dismiss the plea on COVID-19 vaccine side effects has raised eyebrows and concerns among the public.
Justice Chandrachud’s comments on COVID treatment protocols have changed since his statement on January 25, 2022. Back then, he recommended getting booster doses, but now in February 2024, he has chosen Ayush treatment for COVID. This has led people to feel that his earlier statements about treatment protocols seem misleading.

However, the court’s dismissal of the plea has left many wondering about the lack of accountability and justice in such matters.
Transparency and Accountability: The lack of transparency and accountability in addressing vaccine side effects is a serious issue that needs to be addressed. When individuals suffer from adverse reactions, they should have the right to seek compensation and justice. The dismissal of such pleas only adds to the skepticism and distrust surrounding the vaccination process.
Public Health Concerns: The dismissal of the plea on vaccine side effects also raises concerns about public health and safety. With the rising number of cases of adverse reactions and deaths linked to vaccines, it is essential to ensure that the authorities take the necessary steps to investigate and address these issues promptly. Ignoring such concerns only puts the public at risk.
Supreme Court Dismisses COVID-19 Vaccine Side-Effects Plea
• Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud, Justices J B Pardiwala, Manoj Misra dismiss plea alleging side-effects like blood clotting.
• Bench argues PIL was filed to create sensation, not to understand potential side-effects.
• The court emphasized the need for understanding the potential side-effects of not taking the vaccine.
• Plea was filed by Priya Mishra and other petitioners.
Justice JB Pardiwallah asked the petitioner about their own experience with the vaccine. The lawyer replied that they had been vaccinated and didn’t have any bad reactions. Then, some people thought that Priya Mishar and the petitioners were acting to get the case thrown out. Others suspected that Justice JB Pardiwallah might not have been vaccinated, or if he was, he should be experiencing some of the side effects mentioned on the CDC website about vaccine safety.
UK government website: India’s Serum Institute is poised to make over a billion doses of the coronavirus vaccine developed by Oxford University and AstraZeneca. Unlike other vaccines, it can be stored at normal fridge temperatures, making it easier and cheaper to produce and keep – and distribute around the world.
Millions of the doses made by the Serum Institute will be distributed to the world’s poorest people via the global COVAX initiative, in partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO) and Gavi, the vaccine alliance.

When Vaccine Maitri (“Vaccine Friendship”) initiative undertaken by the Indian government to provide COVID-19 vaccines to countries around the world.The government started providing vaccines from 20 January 2021. As of 21 February 2022, India had delivered around 16.29 crore (162.9 million) doses of vaccines to 96 countries.

The person who filed the petition had previously asked for a detailed review of AstraZeneca’s COVISHIELD vaccine by a group of experts. They pointed out the known risks of Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (TTS) in a court in the UK. Even with these worries, the public interest litigation (PIL) wanted more than just an investigation; it called for a system to provide payments to those seriously affected by the vaccine and compensation for families of people who reportedly died due to vaccine-related issues. When the plea was rejected, Chief Justice Chandrachud mentioned that if there were strong reasons for claims like those recognized in the UK, they should be taken to class action lawsuits instead of using PILs under Article 32, which are designed to protect basic rights.
After this there is a growing public demand for an investigation into the matter, particularly due to its funding by Bill Gates, who has been associated with vaccine-related injuries in the past.
Lastly, judicial remarks that lack insight can be quite concerning. The advocate’s next question should have been.. Where is the virus, and what is the explanation for the sudden deaths following vaccination? The public wants to know.
