How can you have negative efficacy?!
They test for antibodies - you can’t have a negative number of Covid antibodies.
More vaccinated get Covid than the control group of unvaccinated.

Efficacy is not a measure of antibodies, it is a measure of the probability of becoming ill from Covid.
Your body’s immune system is a layered defense of innate and acquired immunity. An incredibly complex physical-chemical machine.
As such, it also has balancing/feedback mechanisms which are not fully understood. A well functioning immune system is phenomenal at protecting the human body from pathogens. If it becomes disrupted, one can end up with horrible problems where the immune system either becomes suppressed (possibly leading to cancers and other issues) or overactive (attacking the body’s own cells).
It’s a mechanism which one should respect and treat delicately. The rushed deployment of these covid vaccines, their fading efficacy, and the concerted efforts to cover up ill effects all point to a cavalier disregard for such safeguards in testing and deployment.
I took it that negative numbers as saying not only over time the vaxxine value drops to zero, it continues to drop into negative territory meaning you would have been better off never getting it in the first place.
In other words you are at that point MORE likely to get COVID than had you never been vaxxed. Over time (months) not only are you not “protected” you are now MORE LIKELY to get COVID a disease with a 99.? survival rate.
Let’s not also forget the deadly/chronic side effects of the vaxxes/
This is outcome-based not a measurement of antibodies-based. Negative effectiveness means that as time goes on many more people in this cohort get sick(er) than the unvaccinated control group.
