Tiffany Crider v. HHS - Influenza, Guillain-Barre Syndrome (2026)

Tiffany Crider filed a petition for compensation under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, alleging she suffered from Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) following an influenza vaccination on October 24, 2023. She further alleged that she has suffered residual effects for more than six months.

Respondent denied that Petitioner sustained a Table GBS injury, denied that any vaccine caused or significantly aggravated her alleged injury, and denied that her current condition is a sequela of a vaccine-related injury. Despite these denials, the parties filed a joint stipulation agreeing to a settlement.

The court adopted the stipulation as its decision, awarding Tiffany Crider a lump sum of $97,000.00 as compensation for all items of damages. This amount represents a compromise of the parties' positions on liability and damages.
