Katrina Nazreth v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2025)
Case summary [AI summaries can sometimes make mistakes]
On July 30, 2024, Katrina Nazreth, then 54, filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccine administered on November 27, 2023 caused shoulder injury related to vaccine administration. Respondent filed a combined Rule 4(c) report and damages proffer.
The report conceded that Ms. Nazreth was entitled to compensation for SIRVA, and the decision notes that the combined report contained detailed medical information that was not attached publicly.
The public decision therefore does not set out the full treatment chronology, but it confirms that respondent accepted entitlement and proffered damages. On July 2, 2025, Chief Special Master Brian H.
Corcoran awarded $51,583.57 as a lump sum through counsel's IOLTA account, consisting of $51,500.00 for actual pain and suffering and $83.57 in past unreimbursable expenses.
