Nancy Webb v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2018)

Nancy Webb filed a petition for compensation under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, alleging that she suffered a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) as a result of an influenza vaccination she received on November 2, 2013. She further alleged that she suffered the residual effects of this injury for more than six months.

Respondent denied that the flu vaccine caused petitioner's SIRVA or any other injury. Despite this denial, the parties filed a joint stipulation agreeing that a decision should be entered awarding compensation.

The court found the stipulation reasonable and adopted it as the decision of the Court. Pursuant to the stipulation, Nancy Webb was awarded $20,000.00 as a lump sum for all items of damages and an additional $72.00 to satisfy a Medicaid lien.

The case was resolved via a joint stipulation on damages, and the court directed that judgment be entered in accordance with the decision.
