Jasmine Dennie v. HHS - Influenza, left shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2025)
Case summary [AI summaries can sometimes make mistakes]
On August 8, 2024, Jasmine Dennie filed a petition alleging a left SIRVA after an influenza vaccination administered on October 15, 2023. The public proffer notes that she also received a COVID-19 vaccine that day, but COVID-19 vaccines are not part of the Vaccine Injury Table and were not the covered vaccine basis for this VICP award.
Respondent conceded entitlement, and Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran granted entitlement on April 11, 2025.
The damages record is a proffer and does not describe Ms. Dennie’s treatment course in detail.
Respondent proffered $59,578.33, consisting of $57,500.00 for pain and suffering and $2,078.33 for unreimbursed expenses. Ms.
Dennie agreed, and on May 27, 2025, the Special Master awarded the full amount as a lump sum through counsel.
