Abstract: This paper aims to examine the Relief System for Injury to Health with Vaccination from various perspectives. While the system covers a range of vaccines under routine immunization programs, this study focuses primarily on data related to the relief system for COVID-19 vaccinations. The specific considerations are as follows. By comparing the use of the relief system for COVID-19 vaccinations with that for other routine vaccinations, what insights can be gained? Is there a disparity in the recognition or rejection of applications among municipalities? What explains the differences in the number of applications across prefectures? How does Japan's relief system compare to those of other countries in terms of its characteristics? These are the primary questions this paper seeks to address. Additionally, the paper will discuss issues arising when applications for relief are rejected.
