But given that they have redacted it, there’s no functional way to interpret these numbers
Yes there is. You can compare proportions of events occuring within the study to what would be expected normally outside the study. Like the miscarriage stats of this are well within what's expected outside of the study.
what's important is if the adverse events in the trial differ from outside the trial.

Except you can’t consider proportions without knowing the number of doses administered. That was my whole point.
You need to calculate X# of study events relative to Y# of doses administered, and compare that to A# of population events relative to B# of people in the full population. Without having that Y#, you can’t compare the proportions of the two.
