4:59Now PlayingThe family of an NHS pharmacist who took his own life after suffering complications from a COVID jab are calling for urgent reform of the government's compensation scheme for vaccine damage.
John Cross was told by the official medical assessor for the scheme that the jab had caused his rare neurological effects, but that he was not disabled enough for a payment.
Mr Cross was unable to move, blink or breathe after his first dose of the vaccine.
