The petition stated that the vaccination occurred in the United States, the injuries lasted more than six months, and no prior action or compensation had been sought for these injuries. The case was assigned to the Special Processing Unit. On December 28, 2021, the respondent filed a Rule 4(c) report conceding that Ms. Dahlgard was entitled to compensation. The respondent determined that her injury was consistent with SIRVA, noting she had no prior history of left shoulder pain or dysfunction, her pain and reduced range of motion began within 48 hours of the vaccination, her symptoms were confined to the vaccinated shoulder, and no other condition explained her symptoms. The respondent concluded that Ms. Dahlgard met all legal prerequisites for compensation and agreed that the scope of damages should be limited to her SIRVA and related sequelae. On January 26, 2022, Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran issued a ruling on entitlement, finding Ms. Dahlgard entitled to compensation based on the respondent's concession and the evidence of record. Subsequently, on October 31, 2022, the respondent filed a proffer on award of compensation. The proffer indicated that Ms. Dahlgard agreed to an award of $79,889.82, comprising $75,000.00 for pain and suffering and $4,889.82 for past unreimbursable expenses.
