Headache 388 (19.5%) Injection site reaction* 364 (18.3%) Nausea 306 (15.4%) Dizziness 282 (14.2%) Fatigue and lethargy 217 (10.9%) Fever 212 (10.6%) Fainting 171 (8.6%) Vomiting 165 (8.3%) General feeling of being unwell 162 (8.2%) *Injection site reaction includes one or more symptoms occurring at the site of the injection such as pain, redness, swelling, bruising, rash, itchiness, or lump.
Fainting: Fainting is common after injections, especially in adolescents and young adults. It is one of the reasons that it is recommended that anyone receiving the vaccine should stay under observation for 15 minutes after the injection. Fainting was reported in 171 cases. Some of these cases also reported shaking or stiffening of the limbs.
Allergy: The number of anaphylactic reactions reported to the TGA was 19. The rate of reporting continues to be in keeping with the rates found in international studies for other vaccines given to adolescents and children.1 Other allergic reactions reported included urticaria (hives) in 159 cases and hypersensitivity in 19 cases.
Demyelination disorders: The TGA continues to find no evidence that the incidence of demyelinating disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, after Gardasil vaccination is higher than would occur by chance. This finding is supported by a recently published safety review of HPV vaccines.2
Deaths: No deaths directly linked to the vaccine have been reported in Australia.
You also forgot to mention that the Vaers database is not a record of deaths or side effects caused by vaccination.
Well you go right ahead and have your daughter vaccinated then.
