Alison Cooke v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2023)
Case summary [AI summaries can sometimes make mistakes]
On October 1, 2021, Alison Cooke filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccination administered on October 1, 2020 caused a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration. She alleged a Table SIRVA, receipt of the vaccine in the United States, and residual effects lasting more than six months.
Respondent filed a Rule 4(c) report conceding entitlement. Chief Special Master Brian H.
Corcoran entered an entitlement ruling on August 17, 2023. The ruling states that respondent conceded Ms.
Cooke was entitled to compensation, but it does not include a detailed medical timeline or damages award. A later CourtListener supplement is present in staging text, but the extracted text is badly garbled and does not provide reliable readable merits facts.
The reviewed readable public record supports entitlement but does not show a final compensation amount.
