He alleged a Table claim for a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) resulting from a meningococcal vaccine received on January 20, 2017. The petition also noted he received a yellow fever vaccine on the same day. A fact hearing was held on January 17, 2020, to address the onset of pain and the situs of vaccination. Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran made two factual findings: first, that Mr. Crispo established pain onset within 48 hours of vaccine administration, and second, that the vaccines were administered in his left arm. The public decision does not describe the specific symptoms, medical tests, or treatments Mr. Crispo experienced. The respondent initially noted that other records suggested the vaccines were administered in the right arm, but later conceded that Mr. Crispo suffered SIRVA as defined by the Vaccine Injury Table. The respondent's concession was based on the factual findings from the January 17th hearing. Following the concession, Chief Special Master Corcoran issued a ruling on April 30, 2020, granting entitlement to damages. The parties then proceeded to the damages phase. On June 24, 2020, the respondent proffered a damages award. On August 13, 2020, Chief Special Master Corcoran issued a decision approving a total award of $71,888.52. This amount was comprised of $70,000.00 for pain and suffering and $1,888.52 for past unreimbursed out-of-pocket medical expenses. The award was to be paid as a lump sum check payable to Mr. Crispo. Petitioner was represented by Bruce William Slane of the Law Office of Bruce W. Slane, P.C., and respondent was represented by James Vincent Lopez of the U.S. Department of Justice. The public decision does not name any medical experts.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
