Abstract

This paper examines the Relief System for Injury to Health with Vaccination and the Report on Suspected Adverse Reactions. Specifically, regarding the Relief System for Injury to Health with Vaccination, we analyze data obtained through public information disclosure requests submitted to the 23 wards of Tokyo and derive statistics such as the average number of days required from application to approval or rejection, as well as the distribution of these durations. In addition, we investigate the relationship between the presence or absence of a Report on Suspected Adverse Reactions and the approval or rejection outcomes under the relief system. Furthermore, regarding the Report on Suspected Adverse Reactions, this paper presents the results of a survey conducted across all 47 prefectures in Japan on which items of information related to suspected adverse reactions are disclosed. The Relief System for Injury to Health with Vaccination and the Report on Suspected Adverse Reactions are important mechanisms for promoting vaccination policies. Examining these systems is therefore highly meaningful.
