According to a new study in Israel, an astonishingly low number — 0.06% — of people who have received the second round of the Pfizer COVID vaccine reported “sick” — and none of them seriously:
New data released by the Maccabi Healthcare Services has confirmed the effectiveness of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine.
As of Thursday, only 254 individuals out of the 416,900 [0.06%] who were already a week after the second Pfizer shot – the time where the immunity is considered to kick in – got infected with the virus, the organization reported. Moreover, those who were found to be positive only had light symptoms, with just four of them being hospitalized, all of them in light condition.
Over the same period of time, some 12,944 new cases of COVID-19 emerged in the control group of some 778,000 people having a diverse health profile.
A comparison between the data from the two groups shows that the vaccine is 91% effective seven days or more after the second injection is administered.
From a segmentation of the infections that did occur, it appears that the immunity increases as the days go by. Among the 254 people who contracted the virus, 76 of them were infected after seven days, 44 on the eight day, and 24 on the ninth day. Between day 22 and 24 – when the test period ended – no one was infected.
According to the studies conducted by Pfizer, the vaccine had an efficacy of about 95%.

“The data continue to be very encouraging and to show that the effectiveness of the vaccine is high and stable,” Dr. Anat Aka Zohar, head of Maccabi’s Information and Digital Health Division said. “The findings clearly indicate that as the days go by after the second dose, the immunity becomes stronger.”

Old article — is it correct?
What kind of nonsense is this?
Antisemitic nonsense. I checked out some of the other articles at that site.
I agree,an FR embrassment.
.
Fake site. Using Christian name as cynical ploy.
Gods name in vain.
I’ll bring this one up in the next consultation with my psychic advisor.
Recent numbers in the United States showed the number of breakthrough cases(Covid infection after a second dose of vaccine), running about 0.01% based on 100M sample size.
If anything the Israeli breakthrough number looks high.
“This is an old article, but interesting. Has anyone else seen any suggestion that placebos were used in Israel”
****************************************************
I haven’t. Has anyone else noticed that we have some morons here recently.
Just what sort of Tom-Foolery is this now?
LOL!
If you knew anything about the Israeli press, you would know that if there were a scintila of actual evidence that even a fraction of this were true, the Israeli papers and media would be talking of nothing else. And they have a lot to talk about. It would destroy the careers of numerous officials — the favored activity of the media there, as it is here, except that there it’s a blood sport enjoyed by all, at the expense of any available victim, with little or no sorrow about the political friendliness of the victim.
All of these stories about the entire population of Israel being lied to are complete nonsense.
Israel is about the last country on earth that would need to do that. A stupid idea
I’m not stating if this article is true; I’m offering no opinion.
I just wanted to disagree with you about the article being “antisemitic”. Just because someone criticizes Israel doesn’t make one “antisemitic”. That’s just silly.
Israel is another country. Are we not allowed to question a foreign country?
When Israel attacked the USS “Liberty”, was it “antisemitic” to question Israel’s actions? (I wasn’t born then, so I don’t know what the US reaction was)
The site’s bogus. Might as well be a PFLP product.
Check out some of the other headlines. They are trash.
