I'm not seeing an original citation on the 49 deaths in that article. So I headed to VAERS, public data, to give it a look.
This is the number of deaths after receiving Gardasil vaccine (or, in fact, anywhere from 2 days to a little over 2 years) - there's no implication of causality, and of course the 10% rate of reporting potentially applies here.
(based on date submitted to VAERS - actual dates of vaccination are anywhere before report, with date of death some time after the vaccination)
2006 - none reported - only 428 Gardasil-related reports in total
2007 - 12 reported deaths (11 female, one unknown)
2008 - 18 reported deaths (17 female, one unknown)
2009 - 17 reported deaths (at least 6 before June 2009; 11 female, 6 unknown)
2010 - 15 reported deaths (at least 2 before June 2009; 10 female, 2 male, 3 unknown)
This adds to 47 up to 2009, not 49, and there's no specific reason to believe Gardasil was the cause of any of them. Causes of death are extremely varied; I can pull the descriptions if you like.
