She alleged that D.W., Jr. suffered Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) as a result of receiving Diphtheria-Tetanus-Acellular Pertussis (DTaP) and Hemophilus influenza type b (Hib) vaccinations on October 16, 2013. The petition stated that the vaccines were administered in the United States, the injury lasted for more than six months, and there had been no prior award or settlement for D.W., Jr.'s condition. The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, denied that the DTaP or Hib vaccines caused D.W., Jr.'s GBS or any other injury. Despite the respondent's denial, the parties filed a joint stipulation on damages on January 19, 2016, agreeing that compensation should be awarded. Chief Special Master Nora Beth Dorsey found the stipulation reasonable and adopted it as the decision of the Court. The award included a lump sum of $3,098.64 to reimburse a Medicaid lien for services rendered to D.W., Jr., payable jointly to petitioner and First Recovery Group LLC. The award also included an amount sufficient to purchase an annuity contract for all other damages. The decision directed the clerk of the court to enter judgment in accordance with this decision. Petitioner's counsel was Anne Carrion Toale, and respondent's counsel was Justine Walters.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":1,"special_master":"Nora Beth Dorsey","petitioner_identifier_original":null,"caption_petitioner_name":null,"petitioner_attorney_name":"Anne Carrion Toale","petitioner_attorney_firm":"Maglio Christopher and Toale","petitioner_attorney_location":"Sarasota, FL","adjudicator_name":null,"caption_people_backfilled_at":null,"attorney_canonical_keys":"|anne-toale|","firm_canonical_key":"maglio-christopher-and-toale","package_title":"WEBB et al v.
