Timothy M. Kinman v. HHS - Hepatitis B, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2025)

On March 8, 2022, Timothy M. Kinman filed a petition alleging that a hepatitis B vaccination administered on March 11, 2019 caused a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration, or alternatively caused other pain, illness, disabilities, and conditions.

The public stipulation identifies him as an adult but does not state an exact age. Respondent denied that the hepatitis B immunization caused Mr.

Kinman's alleged injury. The public decision does not describe onset, treatment, imaging, injections, therapy, or functional limitations.

On December 9, 2025, Special Master Mindy Michaels Roth adopted the parties' joint stipulation and awarded $35,000.00 as a lump sum through counsel for all damages available under the Vaccine Act.
