Mary Barizone v. HHS - HPV, other (2023)

Mary Barizone filed a petition on behalf of her minor child, A.F., alleging injury after receiving a human papillomavirus vaccination on November 12, 2020. The petition was filed on July 7, 2023.

Because no decision had been issued within the time specified by Vaccine Rule 10(b), a notice was issued informing the petitioner of their option to withdraw the petition or have it remain before the special master. On June 27, 2023, Petitioner Mary Barizone timely filed a notice to withdraw the petition.

The Chief Special Master granted the request to withdraw, concluding the proceedings. No judgment on the merits was entered.
