Carol Amick v. HHS - Influenza, left deltoid tendinitis, labrum tear, and shoulder injury (2025)

On October 18, 2023, Carol Amick filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccine administered on February 3, 2022 caused a left shoulder injury, including left deltoid tendinitis and a labrum tear. Respondent denied that the vaccine caused Ms.

Amick's shoulder injury or any other injury. The public stipulation does not describe when her first pain began, what treatment she received, imaging findings beyond the injury labels, injections, therapy, surgery, or residual limitations.

The parties resolved the case by stipulation filed October 10, 2025. Chief Special Master Brian H.

Corcoran adopted the stipulation that same day and awarded Ms. Amick $32,000.00 as a lump sum through counsel's IOLTA account.
