    Before NEWMAN, CLEVENGER, and BRYSON, Circuit
                      Judges.
PER CURIAM.

   Timothy McCollum and Lee Ann McCollum, parents and
guardians of Grant F. McCollum, appeal the decision of the
United States Court of Federal Claims, sustaining the
Special Master’s denial of appellants’ motion to reopen and
modify an award made in March 2000 under the National
Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 300aa-I to -34.

    We have carefully considered the arguments made by
the appellants but find no error in the reasoning and deci-
sion of the Court of Federal Claims, reported at McCollum
v. Sec’y of HHS, 91 Fed. Cl. 86 (Fed. Cl. 2010). That court’s
decision is affirmed.

    No costs.

                       AFFIRMED
