As is standard practice, we asked all women of childbearing age to use effective contraception during our trials, and then tested them before each vaccination to make sure that they were not pregnant. We therefore did not expect any pregnancies in our trial participants, and did not expect to be able to get any information from our trial about the effects of the vaccine on fertility. However, because real life doesn’t always go as planned, there have been quite a few pregnancies during the trials. These have been evenly split between the vaccine group and the placebo group. If the vaccine really did affect fertility, we would have seen fewer pregnancies in the vaccine group. The claim that vaccines would affect fertility worried many people, but it is completely false.

A week after Saddam Hussein’s capture, intelligence information led to two more boxes of currency. Additionally, four different captures of gold bars were turned in while Schmidt was in Iraq. Formed with a seemingly rough rectangular mold, each bar weighed about 40 pounds, Schmidt said. Schmidt said of overseeing such wealth, “It was different. We handled more money than I’ll probably see in the rest of my life.”
