Peter Deveau v. HHS - Influenza, Guillain-Barre syndrome (2025)

On November 4, 2024, Peter Deveau filed a petition alleging that he developed Guillain-Barre syndrome after receiving an influenza vaccine on November 5, 2021. He amended the petition on December 4, 2024.

The public dismissal decision does not describe the onset of neurologic symptoms, hospitalization, diagnostic testing, treatment, or residual course. On December 13, 2025, Mr.

Deveau moved to voluntarily dismiss the case under Vaccine Rule 21(b). Chief Special Master Brian H.

Corcoran dismissed the case on December 15, 2025 for insufficient proof. The decision explained that the record did not contain sufficient evidence to establish a Table Injury and did not include a medical expert opinion or other persuasive evidence showing that the alleged injury was vaccine-caused.
