Allison Romansky v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2022)

Allison Romansky filed a petition for compensation on July 27, 2020, alleging she suffered a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) from an influenza vaccine received on September 18, 2018. Respondent denied that Ms.

Romansky sustained a SIRVA Table injury or that the vaccine caused her injury. The parties, however, filed a joint stipulation agreeing to settle the case and award compensation.

The decision adopts the stipulation, awarding Ms. Romansky a lump sum of $45,000.00.

This amount represents compensation for all damages available under the Vaccine Act. The stipulation also addresses future proceedings for attorneys' fees and costs.

The case proceeded as a Table claim, and the parties agreed to this settlement despite respondent's denial of causation. The award is for all items of damages, and Ms.

Romansky releases the United States from further claims related to this vaccination.
