As of June 1, 2009, the CDC reported that over 25 million doses of Gardasil, which is recommended for women between ages 9-26, have been distributed in the U.S. and there was an average of 53.9 VAERS reports per 100,000 vaccine doses. Of these, 40 percent occurred on the day of vaccination, and 6.2 percent were serious, including 32 reports of death.

Crunching the numbers that is 3.234 serious adverse reaction reports per 100,000 which is .003234%. 32 deaths out of 25 million vaccinations is .000128%. Looks like pretty small numbers to me.
