The lawsuit seeks damages for the harm caused to the plaintiff and alleges that the defendants are jointly and severally liable for her injuries. The case is being heard in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Louisiana.

The plaintiffs seek damages for harm caused by the vaccine and for Merck's alleged fraudulent behavior.
