The case was assigned to the Special Processing Unit. On August 30, 2019, the respondent filed a Rule 4(c) report conceding that Ms. Dallabetta was entitled to compensation. The respondent stated that while the injury did not meet the Table criteria for Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA), preponderant evidence established that the September 19, 2016, flu vaccination caused her to develop bursitis in her left shoulder, and that the injury and its sequelae persisted for more than six months after vaccination. Chief Special Master Nora Beth Dorsey issued a ruling on entitlement on August 30, 2019, finding Ms. Dallabetta entitled to compensation. Subsequently, on January 29, 2020, the parties submitted a proffer for damages. Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran issued a decision on March 4, 2020, awarding Amanda Dallabetta $117,939.22. This award was comprised of $117,500.00 for pain and suffering and $439.22 for past lost wages, to be paid as a lump sum check payable to Ms. Dallabetta. Petitioner was represented by Shealene Priscilla Mancuso of Muller Brazil, LLP, and respondent was represented by Adriana Ruth Teitel of the U.S. Department of Justice.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Nora Beth Dorsey","petitioner_identifier_original":null,"caption_petitioner_name":"Amanda Dallabetta","petitioner_attorney_name":"Shealene Priscilla Mancuso","petitioner_attorney_firm":"Muller Brazil, LLP","petitioner_attorney_location":"Dresher, PA","adjudicator_name":null,"caption_people_backfilled_at":"2026-05-05 23:45:17","attorney_canonical_keys":"|shealene-mancuso|","firm_canonical_key":"muller-brazil","package_title":"DALLABETTA v.
