Respondent denied that BTC sustained a Table intussusception within the timeframe set forth in the Vaccine Injury Table, and denied that the rotavirus vaccine or any other vaccine administered on that date caused or significantly aggravated BTC's condition. Despite these denials, the parties reached a joint stipulation for compensation. Special Master Christian J. Moran reviewed the stipulation and found it reasonable, adopting it as the decision of the Court. The award includes an amount sufficient to purchase an annuity contract, paid to the life insurance company from which the annuity will be purchased, and a lump sum of $3,940.00 payable to petitioners for past unreimbursable expenses. These amounts are intended to compensate for all damages available under the law. The public decision does not describe the specific onset of symptoms, medical tests, treatments, or the mechanism of injury. The public decision does not name petitioner counsel or respondent counsel. Judgment was to be entered according to this decision and the attached stipulation, unless a motion for review was filed.","is_minor_inferred":1,"is_pediatric_broad":1,"special_master":"Christian J.
