BOOM: Covid Vaccine Number 2

To get the exact figure you'd have to know how many participants in each group, it might not be the same. I haven't seen how many, not sure if that information is out there.

May be more information on this link -

I'm no maths genius, but 94.5% effacacy would mean 4.725 people didn't get the 'rona after taking it, wouldn't it?

How'd they figure that out?

BBC explains it better Moderna: Covid vaccine shows nearly 95% protection - BBC News

The trial involved 30,000 people in the US with half being given two doses of the vaccine, four weeks apart. The rest had dummy injections.
The analysis was based on the first 95 to develop Covid-19 symptoms.
Only five of the Covid cases were in people given the vaccine, 90 were in those given the dummy treatment. The company says the vaccine is protecting 94.5% of people.
The data also shows there were 11 cases of severe Covid in the trial, but none happened in people who were immunised.

Damn, see I would feel really reluctant to take a vaccine that has been tested on 5 people. I thought maybe a trial would be a few hundred? Maybe a thousand?

I had no idea that gave it to 15,000 people as a test! That's a bit more reassuring. Thanks for the link.
