Is Giving the Wrong Vaccine Malpractice?
If you receive the wrong vaccine, it can be considered medical malpractice. Medical professionals are responsible for administering the correct vaccine to ensure your safety. If you experience harm due to an incorrect vaccine, you may have grounds to file a medical malpractice claim.
Vaccines safeguard millions of Americans from serious and contagious diseases. Most adverse reactions are mild or temporary. But for a few, the damage from tainted vaccines or side effects is as bad — or far worse — than the illness it was meant to prevent.
If you or your child suffered lasting injury, serious illness, or death from an immunization, Dempsey Kingsland & Osteen can help. We have the experience and background in medical litigation to sue on your behalf.

About the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program
To discourage direct lawsuits against vaccine manufacturers that could threaten nationwide immunization programs, the federal government established the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP) to ensure legal recourse for the victims of vaccine injuries.
Lawsuits over the safety of the vaccine itself are brought before the NVICP. Dempsey Kingsland Osteen has the extensive experience in product liability and medical litigation to establish the connection between the vaccine and the injury.
A hospital or immunization clinic may also be sued for:
- Giving the wrong vaccine or wrong dose
- Infection from non-sterile procedures
- Inadequate medical response to a severe reaction
- Negligence in administering the vaccine
