The petition alleged that a human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and an influenza (flu) vaccine administered on October 3, 2016, caused her to suffer \"vaccine-induced chronic headaches, dysautonomia, small fiber neuropathy and amplified pain syndrome.\" The Special Master reviewed the record and found that Ms. Punswick did not meet the statutory requirements to establish entitlement to compensation. On December 14, 2022, Ms. Punswick filed a motion to dismiss her own petition, acknowledging that this would result in a judgment against her and terminate her rights in the Vaccine Program. Respondent did not oppose the motion, though it reserved the right to question the good faith and reasonable basis of the claim and to oppose any application for costs. Ms. Punswick stated her intention to protect her right to file a civil action by electing to reject the Vaccine Program judgment. The Special Master granted Ms. Punswick's motion to dismiss on December 15, 2022, and judgment was entered accordingly. The public decision does not describe the specific onset of symptoms, medical tests performed, treatments received, or the mechanism of injury. Petitioner was represented by Mark Theodore Sadaka of the Law Offices of Sadaka Associates, LLC, and Respondent was represented by Emilie Williams of the U.S. Department of Justice.
