She alleged that an influenza vaccine administered on October 20, 2016, caused her to suffer a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA). Ms. Gordon stated that the vaccine was administered in the United States, that she experienced residual effects for more than six months, and that she had no prior award or settlement for her condition.

The parties subsequently filed a joint stipulation for compensation, which Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran adopted as his decision. The award included a lump sum of $103.76 payable to the Georgia Department of Community Health and a lump sum of $55,000.00 payable to Petitioner for all items of damages.
