The public stipulation decision does not provide the clinical story: it does not state the exact onset of symptoms, the treatment course, imaging results, or expert opinions.\n\nRespondent denied that Ms. Fields sustained a Table SIRVA, denied that the flu vaccine caused her shoulder injury or any other injury, and denied that any current condition was a sequela of a vaccine-related injury. The parties nevertheless filed a joint stipulation resolving the case.\n\nOn October 22, 2025, Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran found the stipulation reasonable and adopted it as the Court's decision. Ms. Fields was awarded $100,000.00 as a lump sum through counsel's IOLTA account, representing compensation for all damages available under the Vaccine Act.","is_minor_inferred":1,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
