The claim proceeded as a Table SIRVA case.\n\nRespondent reviewed the medical records and conceded entitlement in a Rule 4(c) report. The concession stated that Ms. Vetere had no history of left-shoulder pain, inflammation, or dysfunction before vaccination; that her shoulder pain began within 48 hours after the injection; that the pain and reduced range of motion were limited to the vaccinated shoulder; that no alternative condition explained the injury; and that residual effects lasted for more than six months. Chief Special Master Corcoran granted entitlement on October 31, 2025.\n\nThe public damages proffer does not provide an extended treatment narrative beyond the findings supporting Table SIRVA. It states that the parties agreed to resolve damages after entitlement was established. On March 20, 2026, Chief Special Master Corcoran adopted the proffer.\n\nMs. Vetere was awarded $67,500.00 for pain and suffering, payable as a lump sum through counsel's IOLTA account. The award represented all items of damages available under section 15(a). She was represented by Jonathan Joseph Svitak of Shannon Law Group in Woodridge, Illinois.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
