Jennifer Bechtel v. HHS - HPV, other (2023)

Jennifer Bechtel filed a petition on behalf of her minor child, K.B., alleging injury following an HPV vaccination on September 6, 2019. The petition was filed on September 6, 2022.

Because no decision had been issued within the time specified by Vaccine Rule 10(b), a notice was issued. On May 8, 2023, Petitioner elected to withdraw the petition.

The Chief Special Master granted the withdrawal request, and the proceedings on the merits were concluded. No judgment on the merits was entered.
