They alleged that various vaccinations injured F.H. The petition stated that F.H. suffered from autism. The respondent was the Secretary of Health and Human Services. On March 1, 2016, the Petitioners moved for a decision to dismiss their petition, acknowledging they would be unable to prove entitlement to compensation under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. The respondent did not oppose this request. Special Master George L. Hastings, Jr. issued a decision on March 1, 2016, noting that the record indicated Petitioners could not demonstrate either a \"Table Injury\" or that F.H.'s injuries were \"actually caused\" by a vaccination. Consequently, the case was dismissed. The public decision does not describe the specific vaccinations received, the dates of vaccination, the onset of symptoms, specific medical tests, treatments, or the names of any experts. The public decision also does not detail the specific theory of causation or the mechanism by which the alleged vaccinations caused the injury. The decision was not published. The Clerk was ordered to enter judgment accordingly.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":1,"special_master":"George L.
