My eyes cross when I try reading these things! Any help for Tdap research?

I got to this table, but can't find the numbers of people having AE's. (I couldn't paste the table properly, don't know how to format)

Table Td506-3a. Rating System for Local and Systemic Events
Adverse Event

And this table seems to say that the tetnus was only 63% effective in people over 18?

Table Td506 4.2c. Diphtheria and Tetanus: Comparison of Booster Rates2
Between Tdap and Td Groups at One-Month Post-Vaccination

This was only slightly more comprehensible to me.

I'm gonna come back and look at that after I have my coffee. lol Just can't think that hard quite yet.

Serious reactions have been reported with Tdap in less than 2% of subjects enrolled in clinical trials.

huh? lol wierd

the numbers having ae's seem to be here : Table Td506-4.3a. Overview of Safety: Number and Percentage of Participants with Any Solicited Events, Immediate Adverse Events, Unsolicited Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events in Adolescents and Adults pg 15

gg- back later
