Lisa Snell v. HHS - HPV, other (2023)

Lisa Snell filed a petition on September 5, 2023, on behalf of her minor grandchild, K.W., alleging injuries from human papillomavirus vaccinations received on April 21, 2020, and October 22, 2020. The petition was filed under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.

As no decision on the merits had been issued within the timeframe specified by Vaccine Rule 10(b), the petitioner was notified of the option to withdraw the petition or have it remain before the special master. On August 29, 2023, Lisa Snell elected to withdraw the petition.

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