Award amount USD: 24000

AI-assisted case summary:
On October 8, 2024, Alaeddine El Alayli filed a petition alleging that a human papillomavirus vaccination administered on January 18, 2024 caused a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration. The petition alleged a Table SIRVA, residual effects lasting more than six months, administration within the United States, and no prior civil recovery for the injury.

Respondent denied that petitioner sustained a SIRVA Table injury, denied that the HPV vaccine caused the alleged shoulder injury or any other injury, and denied that the current condition was a sequela of a vaccine-related injury. The case resolved through a joint stipulation, so the public decision does not describe first symptom onset, medical visits, imaging, injections, physical therapy, or expert opinions.

On March 23, 2026, Chief Special Master Brian H. Corcoran found the stipulation reasonable and awarded $24,000.00 as a lump sum payable through counsel's IOLTA account for prompt disbursement to petitioner.

Theory of causation field:

Public stipulation gives no clinical chronology. Award $24,000 lump sum. Chief SM Brian H. Corcoran; petition filed October 8, 2024; decision March 23, 2026.

DECISION ON JOINT STIPULATION1
On October 8, 2024, Alaeddine El Alayli filed a petition for compensation under the
National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, 42 U.S.C. §300aa-10, et seq.2 (the

administration (“SIRVA”) as a result of receiving a human papillomavirus vaccine on
January 18, 2024. Petition at 1; Stipulation, filed at March 19, 2026, ¶¶ 1, 2. Petitioner
further alleges that the vaccine was administered within the United States, that she
sustained a SIRVA within the Table timeframe, that she experienced the residual effects
of her condition for more than six months, and that there has been no award or settlement
of a civil action for damages on her behalf as a result of her injury. Petition at 1-2;
Stipulation at ¶¶ 1-5. Respondent denies that Petitioner sustained a SIRVA Table injury;
denies that the vaccine caused Petitioner’s alleged injury, or any other injury; and denies
that her current condition is a sequela of a vaccine-related injury. Stipulation at ¶ 6.
