Rhonda Uselman v. HHS - Td/Tetanus, left shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2026)

Rhonda Uselman filed a petition for compensation on February 27, 2025, alleging injury from a tetanus and diphtheria (Td) vaccine received on October 31, 2023. She claimed to have sustained a left shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) within the Table time period, with residual effects lasting over six months.

Respondent denied that the Td vaccine caused a Table SIRVA injury or any other condition. However, on March 19, 2026, the parties filed a joint stipulation agreeing to an award of compensation.

Chief Special Master Corcoran found the stipulation reasonable and adopted it as the decision, awarding Rhonda Uselman a lump sum of $35,000.00 for all items of damages.
