Case summary [AI summaries can sometimes make mistakes]

William McCaughey filed a petition for vaccine compensation on July 14, 2021, alleging a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) from an influenza vaccination received on September 18, 2020. He stated the vaccine was administered in the United States, his symptoms persisted for over six months, and he had not received prior compensation for this injury.

Respondent denied that Mr. McCaughey sustained a SIRVA Table injury or that the vaccine caused his injury.

Despite these positions, the parties reached a joint stipulation for settlement. The stipulation stated that Mr.

McCaughey would receive a lump sum of $27,500.00 as compensation for all damages. The decision adopts this stipulation as the award, directing the Clerk of Court to enter judgment accordingly.

The case proceeded as a Table claim, and the parties agreed to settle the issues of liability and damages.
