someone very close and important to me got a medical discharge from the military and collects disability pay from them to this day because they developed MS from a vaccine they received in the military.

They did not even have to sue for it. While stationed in Iraq a medic saw their movements and knew what was wrong. The medic initiated for them to go get tested. Which involves testing for everything else and those tests coming back negative as there is no test for MS. The military already had a procedure for the exact event because they knew it could happen.

So it is not surprising to read about this.
