Jamie Wong v. HHS - Influenza, Guillain-Barre syndrome (2025)

On October 7, 2024, Jamie Wong filed a petition alleging that an influenza vaccine administered on October 8, 2021 caused Guillain-Barre syndrome. Respondent conceded entitlement, agreeing that Ms.

Wong met the Table criteria for GBS after influenza vaccination, including onset within the three-to-forty-two-day Table window and no apparent alternative cause. The public ruling does not describe her first neurologic symptoms, diagnostic testing, hospitalization, immune treatment, rehabilitation, or residual deficits.

Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran found Ms.

Wong entitled to compensation on July 25, 2025. Damages remained to be determined.
