Dustin Bradley v. HHS - Tdap, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2020)

Dustin Bradley filed a petition for compensation under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, alleging he received a Tdap vaccine on November 15, 2017, and subsequently suffered a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA). The respondent conceded that Mr.

Bradley's medical course was consistent with SIRVA as defined on the Vaccine Injury Table and that he satisfied all legal prerequisites for compensation. Consequently, a ruling on entitlement was issued, finding Mr.

Bradley entitled to compensation. Subsequently, the parties submitted a proffer on the award of compensation.

The respondent recommended an award of $105,563.91, which included $105,000.00 for pain and suffering and $563.91 for unreimbursable expenses. Mr.

Bradley agreed with this proffered award. The Chief Special Master issued a decision awarding Mr.

Bradley a lump sum payment of $105,563.91, representing compensation for all damages available under the Act. The case was resolved through this stipulated award.
