Nathan Young v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2025)
Case summary [AI summaries can sometimes make mistakes]
On September 19, 2022, Nathan Young filed a petition alleging that he suffered a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration after receiving an influenza vaccine on October 11, 2019. The stipulation also reflects that he received Prevnar 13 on the same date.
Respondent denied that Mr. Young sustained a Table SIRVA, denied that the flu vaccine caused his alleged SIRVA or any other injury, and denied that his current condition was vaccine-related.
The public stipulation does not tell a clinical story beyond the vaccine, injury allegation, and settlement terms. On February 13, 2025, Chief Special Master Brian H.
Corcoran adopted the parties' stipulation and awarded a lump sum of $10,000.00 through counsel's IOLTA account. A later fee decision awarded attorneys' fees and costs only and was not the injury-compensation decision.
