Kyle Jordan v. HHS - COVID-19, injuries alleged after COVID-19 vaccination (2026)

On February 17, 2026, Kyle Jordan filed a pro se petition alleging injuries after COVID-19 vaccinations received on January 12, 2021, and February 9, 2021. He alleged that symptoms began on December 9, 2021.

The case did not proceed to medical causation. Chief Special Master Brian H.

Corcoran explained that COVID-19 vaccines were not covered vaccines under the Vaccine Injury Table for purposes of a Vaccine Program petition. The ruling also noted that, if the December 9, 2021 onset date controlled, the Vaccine Act's three-year limitations period would have expired on December 9, 2024, more than a year before the petition was filed.

On February 18, 2026, the Chief Special Master dismissed the petition for lack of jurisdiction. No vaccine-injury compensation was awarded.

The public decision was reissued for publication on March 17, 2026.
