Important: VAERS reports alone cannot determine if a vaccine caused an adverse event. Reports may contain incomplete, inaccurate, or unverified information. Correlation does not equal causation.

Seeing 15 reports of Blood culture positive after HPV (Gardasil) vaccination may seem alarming, but context is critical.
The 46.67% mortality rate among these reports is elevated, but this reflects the severity of the condition itself rather than vaccine causation.
