Patricia Woolf v. HHS - Influenza, Guillain-Barre Syndrome (2018)

Patricia Woolf filed a petition for vaccine compensation on July 5, 2017, alleging that an influenza vaccine caused her to develop Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS). The record did not contain sufficient evidence to demonstrate entitlement to an award.

Specifically, the petitioner did not show that she suffered a "Table Injury" or that her injury was actually caused by the vaccine. The public decision does not describe the onset of symptoms, specific clinical details, diagnostic tests, or treatments.

The petition lacked supporting medical records or a competent physician's opinion. Petitioner's counsel was Richard Gage, Esq., and respondent's counsel was Darryl Wishard, Esq.

On October 5, 2018, the petitioner requested a dismissal decision. Special Master Mindy Michaels Roth issued a decision on October 9, 2018, dismissing the case for insufficient proof.

The public decision does not specify an award amount or annuity terms.
