Case summary [AI summaries can sometimes make mistakes]
On February 21, 2023, Alvin Moody filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccination administered on November 2, 2021 caused a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration. The public stipulation identifies him as an adult but does not state an exact age.
