The petition stated that the vaccination was administered in the United States, that he suffered residual effects for more than six months, and that no prior action or compensation had been sought. Respondent conceded that Mr. Tillman's claim met the Table criteria for SIRVA, finding that he had no prior shoulder issues, his pain occurred within 48 hours of the vaccination, was limited to the injection site, and no other condition explained the pain. Respondent also agreed the petition was timely filed, the vaccine was received in the U.S., and the statutory severity requirement was met. Based on Respondent's concession and the evidence, entitlement to compensation was granted. Subsequently, a decision awarding damages was issued. Respondent proffered an award of $65,000.00 for pain and suffering only, to which Mr. Tillman agreed. The court awarded this lump sum payment to Mr. Tillman.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
