Corey L. Crockett v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2018)

Corey L. Crockett filed a petition on October 18, 2017, alleging that his October 21, 2015 influenza vaccination caused him to suffer a left shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA).

The respondent conceded entitlement, agreeing that the injury was consistent with SIRVA and caused by the flu vaccine. The respondent also confirmed that there were no other identified causes for the SIRVA and that Mr.

Crockett met the statutory requirements for compensation, including suffering residual effects for more than six months. A ruling on entitlement was issued on October 18, 2017, finding Mr.

Crockett entitled to compensation. Subsequently, on December 20, 2017, the respondent filed a proffer on award of compensation, proposing an award of $75,000.00, which Mr.

Crockett agreed to. A decision awarding damages was issued on March 14, 2018, granting Mr.

Crockett a lump sum payment of $75,000.00.
