Mr Andrew Bridgen MP speaks about it in parliament on the John Campbell video...... between the 5 minute mark to just after the 6 minute mark.
And as much as I unequivocally trust Tory MPs I would rather have a source for the number.
Maybe if I explain the issue.
Say seatbelts reduce the risk of death in high speed accident by 50%.
On any given day may chance of being in a high speed accident is low particularly today when it's really cold and I'm not planning on leaving the house.
However over my lifetime the chance is much higher, so wearing a seatbelt makes sense.
If the absolute risk of covid is based on a short period, particularly if it was during a period when cases are low generally then it doesn't tell you much about how effective the vaccines are.
That isnt to say absolute risk isn't important, if your lifetime risk of getting an infection uis small then that impacts the risk/benefit. However an absolute risk figure, quoted without context, is pretty meaningless.
The argument about seatbealts is a fallacy.
They (vaccines) would have been great if they had no serious adverse reactions and they could prevent transmission and infection.
But they do have serious adverse reactions. Seatbelts don't cause myocarditis, pericarditis, clots and auto-immune disorders among many other conditions and especially to young and healthy people who are miniscule chance of getting infected and die due to Covid.
It's ironic that you ask everyone else about sources when they provide nothing other than your false claims and you are constantly peddling the narrative which had collapsed long time ago.
I will provide sources to you when you do.
Otherwise there is, as I already said, no point in having a conversation as you continue to make false claims.
Everyone provides sources here. You provide the least ones and the most controversial. Earlier you linked Pfizer's website. Really?!
I see you are now engaging in further strawman arguments.
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.
Which parts of the Phase3 clinical trials were successful completed?
Yet you still havent provided a source for your claim.
That's another strawman argument.
Do you know medium and long term effects?
How then can you claim that the vaccines are safe and effective or 'seatbelts'??
How absurd is this position.

Look up on the 'prevention" part. Do they prevent transmission and infection? No.
Do they prevent disease? No.
Have they been tested? No

You are defending Pfizer by proxy. And you're stretching out towards infinity to deny that these experimental Covid drugs aren't the reason for massive debilitating side effects being reported on an unprecedented scale, which is also defending Pfizer and Moderna even if you didn't intend it that way, that is the bottom line.

One of the rules for effective disinformation:
Play Dumb. No matter what evidence or logical argument is offered, avoid discussing issues except with denials they have any credibility, make any sense, provide any proof, contain or make a point, have logic, or support a conclusion. Mix well for maximum effect.
If your are saying the absolute risk is from the initial vaccine studies then that is highly misleading as to your real of catching covid.

The don't prevent transmission or infection and they don't significantly reduce them. So again you are wrong as these are my arguments.
1)Show me where they have been tested and found to prevent transmission and infection.
2) Show me where they have been tested and significantly reduce transmission and infection.
To remind you they forgot to test for transmission. Prizer has admitted it. So you are making false claims.
You have no evidence at all and you are in a constant denial.

They didn't forget. Unless you can provide a source fthen for that claim then you are lying (again)
Also you do understand there is a difference between not being studied prior to the approval and not being studied at all?

Oh let me.
They reduce risk of infection by what factor?
They reduce the risk of disease by what factor? Is this the same as infection? Did u just need three things?
They have been tested on what the eight mice that all died? That is a fact. They approved a shot tested only on 8 mice and they all died.
Just for fun do you know the normal testing procedures?

so if you get the shot, and you get covid, you will be less sick, than if you didn't get the shot, and got covid, is that what you are saying here?

Sorry, I don't understand what you meant when you wrote this:

Can you say more please?
Sure.
The studies where undertaken over a set time period when there were restrictions to prevent the spread of covid.
The reduction in absolute risk is the chance of getting covid during that time period. It doesn't tell you what the benefit or not being vaccinated is over time, especially when most or all restrictions don't apply.
That is why vaccine efficency is a measure of relative risk.
Absolute risk is still important to know. We might develop a 100% effective risk for ebola but, given the very low risk of ever coming into contact with it in most countries, the benefit might not be there.
The apparent increase is “a logical consequence of the data selection and methodologically known as the cohort effect,” says von Stillfried. The AfD member of the Bundestag Martin Sichert requested billing data from the KBV for certain groups of insured persons – according to the following selection criterion: insured persons who visited a doctor in 2021.
In previous years, these insured persons could not provide diagnosis codes for accounting for a death. For a very simple reason: you were still alive – and only just visited a doctor in 2021, who billed the health insurance company for this.
