Sohui Lee v. HHS - Influenza, left shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2026)

On March 7, 2025, Sohui Lee filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccine administered on December 16, 2021 caused a left shoulder injury related to vaccine administration. The stipulation notes that she also received an HPV vaccine in the opposite deltoid that day, and later received a COVID-19 vaccine on December 28, 2021.

Respondent denied that Ms. Lee sustained a Table SIRVA, denied that the flu vaccine caused her alleged SIRVA or any other injury, and denied that her current condition was a vaccine-related sequela.

The public stipulation does not describe the first shoulder symptoms, treatment, imaging, injections, therapy, or functional limits. On January 21, 2026, Chief Special Master Brian H.

Corcoran adopted the parties' stipulation and awarded $111,261.57 through counsel's IOLTA account.
