Tamya Graham v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2021)

Tamya Graham filed a petition for vaccine compensation on August 5, 2019, alleging she suffered a left shoulder injury related to vaccine administration after receiving an influenza vaccine on November 10, 2016. She further alleged that she experienced residual effects of this condition for more than six months.

Respondent denied that Ms. Graham suffered a SIRVA Table injury, denied that the vaccine caused her alleged shoulder injury or any other injury, and denied that her current condition is a sequela of a vaccine-related injury.

Despite these denials, the parties filed a joint stipulation on August 31, 2021, agreeing to settle the case and award compensation. The court adopted the stipulation as its decision.

Ms. Graham was awarded a lump sum of $107,250.00, representing compensation for all items of damages available under the Vaccine Act.

This amount covers her alleged SIRVA injury, which is a condition listed on the Vaccine Injury Table. The decision was issued on October 6, 2021.
