You have a 1 in 20000 of Getting Sick from Covid if you’re Fully Vaccinated.

The Health Authorities have done a TERRIBLE job at marketing just how much protection you get from either Pfizer or Moderna. The image below shows a popular misconception.

Here’s the thing though; 95% efficacy DOES NOT MEAN 5 in 100 (1 in 20) PEOPLE GET INFECTED IF EXPOSED!!!”

“One common misunderstanding is that 95% efficacy means that in the Pfizer clinical trial, 5% of vaccinated people got COVID. But that’s not true; the actual percentage of vaccinated people in the Pfizer (and Moderna) trials who got COVID-19 was about a hundred times less than that: 0.04%.

PEOPLE THIS MEANS 4 IN 10000 (1 in 20000) ARE LESS LIKELY TO GET COVID!!!

“What the 95% actually means is that vaccinated people had a 95% lower risk of getting COVID-19 compared with the control group participants, who weren’t vaccinated. In other words, vaccinated people in the Pfizer clinical trial were 20 times less likely than the control group to get COVID-19.”

A report by Esurance found that 77% of drivers have been in at least one accident. Your chances of getting into a car accident during a 1,000-mile trip are 1 in 366.
