Oooh.....you’ve called the vaxxer hounds, with that, FRiend.
Thanks for that link.
The Absolute efficiency only has to be above zero for a vaccine to be effective and useful.
It’s bizarre that extreme anti-vaxxers try to fool people with this number.
Soon, extreme anti-vaxxers can say, reasonably, that so many are vaccinated that there is no need for them to vaccinate.
