SIRVA is a condition listed on the Vaccine Injury Table. The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, filed a Rule 4(c) Report and Proffer of Compensation, conceding that Mr. Walker was entitled to compensation. The respondent agreed that Mr. Walker's alleged injury was consistent with SIRVA and that he had satisfied all legal prerequisites for compensation. Based on the respondent's concession and the evidence of record, the Chief Special Master found Mr. Walker entitled to compensation. Subsequently, a decision awarding damages was issued. The respondent proffered an award of $47,755.14, which included $47,500.00 for pain and suffering and $255.14 for past unreimbursed expenses. Mr. Walker agreed with this proffered award. The court awarded Mr. Walker the lump sum of $47,755.14, representing compensation for all damages available under the Act.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
