4,000 Americans die every year from all types of HPV using CDC numbers.

You have a link to those numbers, especially since, as far as I know, the only problem with HPV isn't that it kills people, its that it can, key word, can, cause cervical cancer (and a couple of other types).

I doubt, unless you can get me some numbers, that a higher percentage of young girls died from a few shots caused by this somewhat useless vaccine (it only prevents a few strands of HPV, not even all of them).

My guess is that the numbers of people who benefit from this is low, and the death rate caused by it, is so low, its probably minuscule.

Not going down that path again. There are many threads on FR which cover the subject ad naseum. A higher percentage of girls who received the vaccine (not a shot really) died, mostly from blood clots, than the percentage of the population who died from cancer related to HPV.

Since I know people who have died from it your dismissal of the dangers is offensive.

Regardless of the rate, a young girl being killed at 13 years of age after getting the shot is significantly different than a woman who has largely lived her life and died at 60 from cervical cancer. A cancer which can usually be avoided with proper screening which BO care is seeking to eliminate.
