The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, denied that the vaccines caused the alleged shoulder injury or any other condition, and denied that Petitioner sustained a SIRVA Table injury. The public decision does not describe the onset of symptoms, specific clinical details of the injury, diagnostic tests performed, or treatments received. The parties subsequently filed a joint stipulation agreeing that compensation should be awarded. Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran found the stipulation reasonable and adopted it as the decision awarding damages. Ms. Wadhwa was awarded a lump sum of $55,000.00, payable to Petitioner, representing compensation for all items of damages available under the program. The decision directs the Clerk of Court to enter judgment in accordance with this award, unless a motion for review is filed.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
