Jennifer Raftery v. HHS - Influenza, chronic immune demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) (2026)

Jennifer Raftery filed a petition on July 7, 2021, alleging that the influenza vaccine she received on January 9, 2020, caused her to develop chronic immune demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). The vaccine is listed on the Vaccine Injury Table.

Respondent denied that the flu vaccine caused Ms. Raftery's condition.

However, the parties reached a joint stipulation for compensation. The court found the stipulation reasonable and adopted it as the decision.

Ms. Raftery was awarded a lump sum of $105,363.34 in damages.
