In the United States, low-profit margins and an increase in vaccine-related lawsuits led many manufacturers to stop producing the DPT vaccine by the early 1980s.[69] In 1982, the television documentary DPT: Vaccine Roulette depicted the lives of children whose severe disabilities were incorrectly blamed on the DPT vaccine by reporter Lea Thompson.[74] The ensuing negative publicity led to many lawsuits against vaccine manufacturers.[75] By 1985, vaccine manufacturers had difficulty obtaining liability insurance.

En 1982 el documental televisivo DPT: Vacuna Roulette (DPT: la ruleta de la vacunación) describió la vida de los niños con discapacidades graves atribuidas erróneamente a la vacuna DPT por la reportera Lea Thompson.[61] La publicidad negativa generada por el documental llevó a un aumento enorme del número de demandas presentadas contra los fabricantes de vacunas,[62] los que en 1985 tuvieron dificultades para obtener un seguro de responsabilidad civil.
