[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 2340969, member: 219467"] It's kind of here [URL]https://www.pfizer.com/news/press-release/press-release-detail/pfizer-and-biontech-announce-vaccine-candidate-against[/URL] " The case split between vaccinated individuals and those who received the placebo indicates a vaccine efficacy rate above 90%, at 7 days after the second dose. This means that protection is achieved 28 days after the initiation of the vaccination, which consists of a 2-dose schedule. As the study continues, the final vaccine efficacy percentage may vary. " i.e. some people who were vaccinated still tested positive for COVID.. hence the 90% efficiency rather than 100% I think I have read elsewhere that out of the 94 cases something like 8 or 9 were in the vaccinated group the rest in the placebo arm. Edit to add. until the trial research is actually reported all we have to go on are the press releases. [/QUOTE]
