Prause filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccine administered on September 7, 2016, caused her to develop Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), which progressed to chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and resulted in residual health problems. The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, denied that the flu vaccine caused or aggravated Ms. Prause's GBS and CIDP, and also denied that her condition was a sequela of a vaccine-related injury. The respondent further denied that Ms. Prause sustained a GBS Table injury. Despite these denials, the parties reached a stipulation recommending an award of compensation. The parties agreed that Ms. Prause would receive a lump sum of $225,000.00 as compensation for all damages. The Special Master reviewed the stipulation, found it reasonable, and adopted it as the decision of the Court. Judgment was entered in accordance with the terms of the stipulation, compensating Ms. Prause for her alleged vaccine injury.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Nora Beth Dorsey","petitioner_identifier_original":null,"caption_petitioner_name":null,"petitioner_attorney_name":"Glen H.
