28 miscarriages is the statistically the same occurrence that appeared in the group given a placebo.

Go back an read the article again, it does not say this at all.

" Go back an read the article again, it does not say this at all.

From the article: "...based on the clinical trials done prior to approval of the drug - which indicated that miscarriages among pregnant women given Gardasil were statistically consistent with miscarriages among women given placebos and in the general population."

Yeah, it pretty much does. This seems to be a non news article, simply designed to scare people with poor reading comprehension skills.

No, it does not say 28. It does say that the number of AEs related to pregnancy (without specificity) occured in both placebo and active groups of the Phase III trials with Gardasil. Translation: There is no statistically significant difference in the rate of Adverse Events related to pregnancy in those who have received a Gardasil vaccination and those who have not.
