Timothy Redman v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2024)

Timothy Redman filed a petition for compensation under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, alleging he suffered a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) as a result of an influenza vaccine he received on October 2, 2021. Respondent denied that Mr.

Redman sustained a SIRVA Table injury or that the vaccine caused his injury. Despite these denials, the parties filed a joint stipulation agreeing that a decision should be entered awarding compensation.

The court found the stipulation reasonable and adopted it as its decision. Pursuant to the stipulation, Mr.

Redman was awarded a lump sum of $10,000.00. This amount represents compensation for all items of damages available under the Vaccine Act.

The parties also agreed to submit to further proceedings for the award of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. The stipulation was not an admission by the United States that the flu vaccine caused Mr.

Redman's alleged shoulder injury.
