Anna Gilerman v. HHS - Influenza, linchen planus (2016)
Case summary [AI summaries can sometimes make mistakes]
Anna Gilerman filed a petition on June 18, 2015, seeking compensation under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act. She alleged that an influenza vaccine received on September 19, 2014, caused her to develop lichen planus and that she suffered residual effects for more than six months.
The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, denied that the vaccine caused the petitioner's condition. The parties subsequently filed a joint stipulation, which Special Master Christian J.
Moran found to be reasonable and adopted as the court's decision. The stipulation provided for a lump sum payment of $45,000.00 to Anna Gilerman, representing compensation for all damages available under 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-15(a).
The decision does not describe the specific onset of symptoms, medical tests, treatments, or expert witnesses. The clerk was directed to enter judgment according to the decision and stipulation, unless a motion for review was filed.
