interpretation that makes sense the markets go it was very very careful in devising a test that takes into consideration that these symptoms typically go away ninety percent of these children are fine the medical community at large what are those doctors so no problems if they have that same medical community that today looks back and says oh yes the first symptom if there was or if we could bring runs in the first symptom or manifestation of onset and they very clearly say whichever curse first in this case it's relatively simple and judge hyde is very brief decision is telling on this in that both experts agreed that the first symptom of artists injury was november third or no later the november third two thousand and one more than thirty six months before the petition was filed and the inquiry ends there we have the medical community at large to experts agreeing on the onset of the condition under section sixty two and markovitch the cases time art and the special master chief special master was correct in dismissing the case and judge charge was correct hodges was correct in affirming that decision petitioner's argument on a no retrospective review is just absolutely contrary to the way the act has been interpreted for twenty years petitioners that under your hypothetical if we had an initial symptom and then three years later if you see that is a separate onset of the condition you end up with to onset the same injury which the supreme particular was started two years before because of that one symptom of the stomach ailment i think if those two symptoms are both related to the same injury then yes the the symptom that occurred two symptom or manifestation of onset of an injury so i think in your hypothetical the statute would run from that first symptom even if there were no other no other symptoms had appeared for another two years they still think based from first again and that the focus is on first in an onset and so at that symptom that you described the tummy ache was the first symptom under the act even if there were no other underlying at least nothing that anyone noticed that continued for those two years that's first that still the first symptom it almost seems as if your hypothetical saying that that to me is the first symptom and then we have two years later sound manifestation that months later trial begins to have more pain and then for the first time they really  i think it would be too late and when the stash is written congress specifically stated a three year statute of limitations in the very exceptional cases is hypothetical you've you've presented that date the m barred by that the vast majority of cases where symptom is recognized for an injury this intimate that interest records and that wouldn't be the case but i do think that hypothetical based on the statue of limitations as written by congress this three year november third two thousand and one so that even if we are dealing with an inexact science in this case are two experts both agreed on in the onset of this child's injury necessarily true but it's not clear from the record below that petitioner that that artist mother actually reported all of these symptoms to her doctor so we don't really know what what the doctors would have said at the time but but that's someone irrelevant in the act because we have so many cases where an expert hundred in that's the first time there's in some cases ever any connection of the symptoms that petitioner may claim occurred right after a vaccine in those we do have experts that come in later on for causation purposes to place symptoms that don't occur in the record and determine that to be the onset of  condition and here again we have the full picture so yes some of the problems of being a hyper active child kicked out of prague daycare after daycare may not have developed into a t h d so it's true that those symptoms may not have turned into anything but they didn't really have the full picture here the act indicates that the special master must take everything into consideration until the time of judgment  so we can look at the full picture and are the experts now knowing that he was eventually diagnosed with a d h he can certainly look in hindsight to place the onset of that condition which dr herskowitz actually said it happened long before case that wasn't a set of facts because he was at the time he was diagnosed there still would have been time to file a claim here i i have difficulty imagining a case where there's the symptom and then there's nothing in the i have difficulty i guess in visioning hypothetical where that would occur but even if it did i think under the language of the act it would be barred but again those are the facts in this case here even after diagnosis there were still before dr king is born petitioner's expert would place the onset of any condition that clearly wouldn't make any sense to wait until diagnosis of an injury to run the start the running of the statue of limitations when part of their allegations  portion of the allegation which was mercury toxicity occurred prior to dr king's bourne's dating of the onset and diagnosis clearly can't be the basis for the running of the statute of limitations if there's not a discovery rule under the vaccine act it's the first symptom or manifestation of onset already done your job you have to wait for the test which is the first it begins the legal trigger only goes for is the first event object that we recognized as a sign of a vaccine injury by the medical profession at large that was
