A 58-year-old man has initially failed in his lawsuit against the Mainz-based company. The court did not consider the requirements for claims due to suspected vaccination damage to be met.

The regional court Rottweil dismissed a lawsuit on Wednesday due to alleged damage caused by a corona vaccination. A 58-year-old man sued. He accuses the vaccine manufacturer Biontech of being almost completely blind in his right eye as a result of a corona vaccination. The man is demanding 150,000 euros in compensation from the Mainz company and a declaration that he must be compensated for all further damages. However, the 2nd Civil Chamber did not consider the requirements for claims to be met, as the regional court announced. The plaintiff can appeal the judgment within one month.

This is not the first trial of its kind in Germany. And it is not the first decision by a court in this context.
