Kristi Keesey v. HHS - HPV, shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) (2025)

On April 25, 2025, Kristi Keesey filed a petition seeking compensation after receiving a human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine on March 14, 2023. She alleged that the vaccine caused a shoulder injury related to vaccine administration and that the residual effects continued for more than six months.

Respondent filed a Rule 4(c) report conceding entitlement, stating that Ms. Keesey's alleged injury was consistent with SIRVA as defined by the Vaccine Injury Table and that she satisfied all legal prerequisites for compensation.

The public ruling does not describe the first symptom, onset narrative, examinations, imaging, injections, therapy, or practical impact of the shoulder injury. Chief Special Master Brian H.

Corcoran found Ms. Keesey entitled to compensation on November 17, 2025.

Damages remain for a later decision. Ms.

Keesey was represented by David John Carney of Green & Schafle LLC.
