The former Australian Medical Association president said she and her wife suffered long-term symptoms after vaccine shots.
Phelps said she and her wife had both been injured after receiving COVID vaccinations.
“People who have vaccine injuries are not anti-vaxxers, because they have turned up to have vaccines. They’re wanting to protect themselves against the serious consequences of COVID,” she said. Kerryn Phelps and Jackie Stricker-Phelps say they have symptoms similar to long COVID after vaccine shots.Phelps said the ongoing pandemic response could not be a vaccine-only approach, and needed to include better ventilation at schools, a zero transmission approach for hospitals, mandatory isolation periods, access to better masks, and improved public health messaging.
In the interview, Phelps said working out how to treat people suffering the long-term implications of long COVID and vaccine injury was vital. A Services Australia spokesperson said as of November 23, the department has received 3100 applications, and 79 have been approved for claims totalling $3.9 million.
