The petition also noted that E.H. received four other vaccines on the same day: Varicella, Hepatitis A, DTaP/Hib/IPV, and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines. The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, denied that E.H. sustained a Table injury, that any vaccine caused E.H.'s ITP, or that E.H.'s current condition was a sequela of a vaccine-related injury. Despite these denials, the parties reached a stipulation for settlement. Under the terms of the stipulation, E.H. was awarded $55,000.00 as a lump sum payment to his estate, contingent upon Casey Humphreys being appointed as guardian/conservator. Additionally, $2,390.59 was awarded to reimburse a Medicaid lien for services rendered to E.H. by the State of Arkansas. This total award of $57,390.59 represents compensation for all damages available under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. The decision was based on this stipulation, and judgment was to be entered accordingly. Special Master Nora Beth Dorsey issued the decision on July 5, 2022. Petitioner counsel was Mark T. Sadaka of the Law Offices of Sadaka Associates, LLC. Respondent counsel was Voris E. Johnson of the U.S. Department of Justice.
