The Pfizer has shown 94% Effective against asymptomatic infection and 96% against symptomatic infection. That means less than 6% who get both shots of the Pfizer vaccine will have either a asymptomatic infection or symptomatic infection and be infectious. The other 94% will NEVER have the virus and cannot pass it on. The Israelis have the real world data to back it up.
“That means less than 6% who get both shots of the Pfizer vaccine will have either a asymptomatic infection or symptomatic infection and be infectious. The other 94% will NEVER have the virus and cannot pass it on.”
No, that’s not what effectivity means. The Phase 3 trials had approx 19,000 in each cohort, vaxxed and placebo. 162 in the placebo group got mild symptoms(0.00884). 8 vaxxed got mild symptoms (0.00044).
1 - (0.00044/0.00884) = 95%.
If I don’t care about a 0.884% chance of mild symptoms, why would I care about a vax???
The chance of hospitalization symptoms from the trials was 9 / 21500 = .000418 = .0418%.
Also, these vaccines do NOT halt transmission. They are not real vaccines.
One more: “real world” Israel data cannot be used to help either side’s case, not at this point. Not a controlled study at all, but rained by the real world.
You and most of the Western world are being played. Read the Phase 3 trial study.
