A ruling on entitlement was issued on August 9, 2021, finding that the vaccine was administered in her right arm and that she was entitled to compensation for SIRVA. Respondent conceded entitlement, agreeing that the injury met the criteria on the Vaccine Injury Table, including no prior history of shoulder issues, onset within 48 hours of vaccination, symptoms limited to the vaccinated shoulder, and no other identified condition explaining the symptoms. The petition was timely filed, the vaccine was received in the United States, and the injury caused residual effects for more than six months. On October 14, 2021, a decision awarding damages was issued. Based on a proffer agreed to by both parties, Tracy Renee Ruddy was awarded $106,659.30, consisting of $105,000.00 for pain and suffering and $1,659.30 for actual unreimbursable expenses.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
