Charles A. Hall v. HHS - Influenza, Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (“CIDP”) (2017)

Charles A. Hall filed a petition alleging that the influenza vaccine he received on October 10, 2013, caused him to develop Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP).

He further claimed that he suffered residual effects from this injury for more than six months. The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, denied that the vaccine caused Mr.

Hall's CIDP or any other injury. Despite the denial, both parties entered into a joint stipulation to resolve the case.

The stipulation acknowledged that the influenza vaccine is on the Vaccine Injury Table and that Mr. Hall had not received any prior award or settlement for his condition.

The court adopted the stipulation, awarding Mr. Hall a lump sum payment of $150,000.00 as compensation for all damages available under the law.

The case was then directed to have judgment entered according to this decision and the stipulation.
