Katelyn Crowley-Lum v. HHS - Influenza, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2025)

On October 1, 2024, Katelyn Crowley-Lum filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccine administered on October 27, 2021 caused a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration, either as a Table SIRVA or as a caused-in-fact injury. Respondent conceded entitlement in a Rule 4(c) report filed August 14, 2025, agreeing that Ms.

Crowley-Lum's alleged injury was consistent with Table SIRVA and that she satisfied the legal prerequisites for compensation. Chief Special Master Brian H.

Corcoran found entitlement that same day. The public rulings do not provide onset, treatment visits, imaging, therapy, injections, or functional limitations.

On November 21, 2025, Chief Special Master Corcoran awarded damages based on respondent's proffer. Ms.

Crowley-Lum received $55,000.00 for pain and suffering and $108.24 for unreimbursed expenses, for a total lump sum of $55,108.24.
