Absolute risk reduction 0.84%.......119 vaccinated prevents 1 infection.
Efficacy and effectiveness of covid-19 vaccine - absolute vs. relative risk reduction
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
Edit:
This is where the people on John Campbells two separate videos got the figures from.
Thanks.
This why I was asking.
Actually, ARR and its derivative number needed to vaccinate to prevent a disease (NNV) are time-dependent parameters, affected by follow-up duration (Figure 1) [12]. The above mentioned fall of risk reduction indices of BNT162b2 vaccine could therefore be, at least in part, correlated to the very short duration of the study [3] (median value 2 months).
You continue on the denialism path.
Everyone by nor knows that vaccines don't prevent transmission and infection. And everyone knows what the absolute risk reductions are negligible.
You seem confused again.
Your opinion is not the same as everyone knows.
If you see from most of the above replies I am correct. Unless for those who are engaged in vaccine apologetics and denialism of reality. And recently defending Pfizer.

Still says nothing about onward transmission.
If your interpretation of that text was correct it would be easy for you to show that onwards transmisson testing was required.
You haven't because you can't
Pfizer didn't test for transmission. They have admitted it. There is no evidence that they tested for other major factors that prove the vaccine was safe and effective. No tests for short, medium and long term effects. So Phase3 clinical trial has failed.
Do you have any links for the claims that Pfizer wasn't required to test for transmission given that this is a an integral part of a vaccine trial.
You haven't provided any evidence it was an integral part of the trial. (Because it wasn't,)
Testing for transmission is an integral part of vaccine trials. This is standard knowledge. It's unfortunate you don't have it and this is there the confusion is.
Phase 3
Clinical trials include many thousands of participants. They aim to test whether a vaccine is effective in preventing people from getting the disease – in this case COVID-19. Phase 3 trials also thoroughly assess the vaccine for safety and side effects.
It is scandalous not to test for transmission. But I assume Pfizer is used to being part of scandals of criminal and criminal fines.

You are in one of these forums by the way and you are trying hard to propagate some really weird conspiracy theories such as that testing for transmission isn't required as part of a vaccine trial. You argue on the basis of a conspiracy theory so you can defend Pfizer.

Do you actually claim that there is no need to test for transmission or infection in vaccine clinical trials?! Show me one other than Pfizer's then.

Are you saying Phase III trials weren't done?
According to Pfizer they started on July 27, 2020 and had 46,331 participants in January 2021.

Did Pfizer test (in their trials) to see if their vaccine stopped transmission before releasing it to the public?

Can you compress Phase3 trails in 5-6 months?!
No idea. Phase 3 trials by Pfizer were done over 13 months.

Ok it doesn't change things that much. Again impossible to get the vital information you want in that short period of time. It actually takes years to get to know them. In 13 months, if we trust them (not many do), you can only start seeing the short term effects.

They didn't.
But then they didn't need to, and would have had little or no impact on it getting approved or not.

How about 60 years? That's when studies into mRNA vaccines started.

In which Universe a pharmaceutical doesn't test for transmission before it releases its product in the market??
How a vaccine can be approved if you know nothing about it. They didn't test for transmission and neither for short, medium, and long term effects. This is scandalous together with the approval.
