Quick Hits: What does 95% effectiveness mean for the experimental COVID-19 vaccines?
In Episode 20 of Dr. Dave On Call, we discuss the reported 95% effectiveness for the experimental COVID-19 vaccines.
There are currently 2 vaccines by the companies Pfizer and Moderna that are reporting 95% effectiveness, an impressive number. Both companies have applied for Emergency Use Authroization to the FDA for approval.
Today we are going to discuss the press released data. Of note, this information has yet to be submitted for peer-review. For the purposes of this episode, we will focus on the Moderna data as it is very similar to the Pfizer data.
In addition to discussing the reported 95% effectiveness data, we will also use the reported data to answer the following questions:
1) Does the COVID-19 prevent contracting the disease altogether?
2) Does the COVID-19 vaccine prevent clinical disease?
3) Does the COVID-19 vaccine prevent serious disease?
