South Australian tribunal orders employer to pay compensation for vaccine injury

By Rhoda Wilson,

The South Australian Employment Tribunal ordered the Department of Child Protection (“DCP”) to pay compensation and medical expenses to a youth worker who developed pericarditis after getting a covid booster under a workplace vaccination directive.

The DCP admitted that Shepherd’s pericarditis had been caused by the booster but blamed the state-directed vaccination.

However, the Tribunal rejected the DCP’s argument, deciding that because the injury arose as a result of both the state-directed vaccination mandate and his employment, Daniel Shepherd was entitled to workers’ compensation.

In other words, the Tribunal held the employer responsible for Shepherd’s vaccine injury irrespective of whether it was a state-directed mandate.

Hopefully, more countries will follow this example in Australia, Dr. Byram Bridle writes.

South Australia Decides to Hold “Employers Accountable for Injuries Incurred as a Result of Vaccination Directives Enforced in the Workplace”

By Dr. Byram Bridle

Australia was among the countries with the most draconian covid-19 policies. I will never forget seeing videos of police firing rubber bullets into crowds of critically thinking Aussies who were trying to protect themselves, their families, and friends, from being coerced into a novel medical intervention that they were very uncomfortable with (and rightly so). But, like many countries, there have been enough Australians who sufficiently cherish the concept of constitutional freedoms, rights, and liberties, to overcome the “divide and conquer strategy,” unite, and push back against the relatively few power brokers that imposed their scientifically flawed wills on the masses.

It was with these thoughts in mind that I read an article sent to me by a respected academic colleague. The article, which is published in the Canberra Daily, is entitled, ‘Landmark Covid vaccine injury win’ and you can read it at this LINK. It was refreshing to read a common-sense legal decision that has major implications for preventing employers in South Australia from attempting to bypass the concept of bodily autonomy.

Dr. Rado Faletic is a scientist who worked for the Department of Child Protection in South Australia. He got injured after taking a covid-19 booster shot. His employer vigorously argued that they were not responsible because “the government told us to implement a vaccine mandate.” This attempt to absolve themselves of responsibility did not go over well when heard by the South Australian Employment Tribunal.

Here are key excerpts.

Many Australian employers have sought to deflect responsibility for injuries incurred under workplace covid vaccine directives on the basis that they were simply following state government orders.

This holds true for employers around the world. In addition to injuries, employers are also trying to deflect all responsibility for the many other harms caused to those who were “hurt” by not complying with mandates to take covid injections.

The Tribunal decision sends “a clear signal to employers that they have a duty of care to their employees regardless of what governments impose upon them.”

Sometimes corporations and government departments have to actually experience the consequences of their actions before they think twice and correct course… It’s really sad that it’s taking people being seriously injured and killed for that to happen.

Cases like this will mean that employers are reluctant to implement policies enforcing medical procedures in the future, which is great, because they were never qualified to do so in the first place.

Let’s hope so, and AMEN to that!

This is a case where the legal system in South Australia has ruled that trying to “pass the buck” will not be tolerated when it comes to employers forcing medical interventions on their employees (er, I mean, “giving them a ‘choice’ between work or a destroyed life”). Of course, governments and other key contributors to the gross mismanagement of covid-19 also need to be held accountable.

Hopefully, more countries will follow this example in Australia.

“It has been two years, six months, and nine days (921 total days) since the administration of my employer, the University of Guelph, banned me from accessing my office and laboratory. I spoke truths about covid-19 when much of the world was not ready to hear them. As I am still expected to work, I would like to have access to my work spaces. Segregation makes me feel less than human.” – B. Bridle, 31 January 2024
