He alleged that symptoms began on December 9, 2021.\n\nThe 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.\n\nOn 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.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
