        On April 8, 2011, Janelle Campbell (“petitioner”) filed a petition pursuant to the National

that she developed systemic lupus erythematous (“SLE”) and a midbrain stroke, as a result of

See Petition at preamble, ¶3. Petitioner further alleged that she experienced the residual effects
of these injuries for more than six months.

       On December 23, 2014, the parties filed a stipulation, stating that a decision should be
entered awarding compensation.

        Respondent denies that petitioner’s SLE and/or midbrain stroke, or any other condition,
was caused-in-fact by her HPV vaccinations. Nevertheless, the parties agree to the joint
stipulation, attached hereto as Appendix A. The undersigned finds the stipulation reasonable and
adopts it as the decision of the Court in awarding damages, on the terms set forth therein.

       The parties stipulated that petitioner shall receive the following compensation:

       A lump sum of $25,000.00, in the form of a check payable to petitioner. This amount
       represent compensation for all damages that would be available under 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-
       15(a).

       Stipulation ¶ 8.

       The undersigned approves the requested amount for petitioner’s compensation.
Accordingly, an award should be made consistent with the stipulation.

         In the absence of a motion for review filed pursuant to RCFC Appendix B, the clerk of
the court SHALL ENTER JUDGMENT in accordance with the terms of the parties’
stipulation.3

       IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                             s/ Nora Beth Dorsey
