It is estimated that 70% of all SIRVA cases are related to the improper administration of the flu shot into a persons shoulder, typically administered higher in the shoulder than recommended. It is thought that the flu shot is the most common cause of SIRVA injuries simply due to the sheer volume of flu shots administered to the general public each year. However, it is important to note that any vaccine that is administered improperly into your shoulder can cause a SIRVA vaccine injury.

Today, the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program recognizes a causal connection between vaccines and SIRVA if a person experiences pain within 48 hours of receiving a vaccination and that pain persists for at least 6 months.

**If you believe that you have experienced a shoulder injury from a vaccine, we recommend you speak with a vaccine injury attorney to find out if you qualify for compensation:**
