Respondent denied a SIRVA Table injury or that the vaccine caused the alleged injury. The parties filed a joint stipulation agreeing to settle the case. Petitioner was awarded $30,700.00. The stipulation states the Tdap vaccine is contained in the Vaccine Injury Table and that petitioner alleges she sustained a SIRVA within the Table's time period or that the vaccine caused her injury, with residual effects for more than six months. The stipulation explicitly states it is not an admission by the respondent that the vaccine caused the alleged injury or that it is a Table injury. The public text does not detail the specific mechanism of injury, expert testimony, or the Special Master's reasoning beyond adopting the stipulation. The theory of causation is based on a \"Table\" injury, as indicated by the stipulation, but the specific Table entry and supporting medical evidence are not detailed in the public decision. Attorneys for petitioner were Ronald Craig Homer, Conway, Homer, P.C., and for respondent was Bridget Corridon, U.S. Department of Justice. Chief Special Master Brian H.
