Liability for Vaccines: AG Medina suggests that the unconditional application of a ten-year expiry period in the case of progressive injuries is contrary to the Charter

On 19/06/2025, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) issued an update regarding Liability for Vaccines: AG Medina suggests that the unconditional application of a ten-year expiry period in the case of progressive injuries is contrary to the Charter. The Advocate General argues that the limitation period should not begin before the stabilisation date, defined as the moment at which the victim's medical condition ceases to evolve, to safeguard consumer-protection and effective remedy rights under the EU Charter.
