Petrie. The petition alleged that Mr. Petrie developed transverse myelitis after receiving an influenza vaccine on November 5, 2015.\n\nDuring the case, Mr. Petrie died on October 18, 2022. Petitioner alleged that his death was a sequela of the vaccine-related injury. Respondent denied that the influenza vaccine caused transverse myelitis, denied that it caused any other injury, and denied that Mr. Petrie's death was vaccine-related.\n\nThe public stipulation materials do not provide a detailed clinical narrative of Mr. Petrie's transverse myelitis or death. They state the vaccine, alleged diagnosis, death date, respondent's denials, estate posture, and the agreed compensation. Special Master Nora Beth Dorsey reviewed the stipulation and adopted it on March 7, 2025.\n\nThe award totaled $237,500.00. It included $200,000.00 payable to petitioner as personal representative of the estate, through counsel's IOLTA account, and $37,500.00 payable jointly to petitioner and the New York State Department of Health for a Medicaid lien. A later fee decision awarded attorney fees and costs only, not additional injury compensation. Petitioner was represented by Nancy R. Meyers of Turning Point Litigation in Greensboro, North Carolina.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Nora Beth Dorsey","petitioner_identifier_original":null,"caption_petitioner_name":null,"petitioner_attorney_name":"Nancy Routh Meyers","petitioner_attorney_firm":"Turning Point Litigation","petitioner_attorney_location":"Greensboro, NC","adjudicator_name":null,"caption_people_backfilled_at":null,"attorney_canonical_keys":"|nancy-meyers|","firm_canonical_key":"turning-point-litigation","package_title":"PETRIE v.
