Could you provide a source for your 99%, given you're accusing others of lying?
The numbers I have are ~96% for the Pfizer, and ~94% for Moderna.
I explain this in another comment below, but even against Delta, the efficacy is actually quite high, even in the Israeli data:
Vaccine effectiveness vs. severe disease for younger (<50yr) = 1 - 0.3/3.9 = 91.8%
Vaccine effectiveness vs. severe disease for older (>50yr) = 1- 13.6/91.9 = 85.2%
The combined number suffers from Simpson's paradox, please read more:

& please stop spreading misinformation. 96-94% to 85-91% is against a new variant is hardly a drastic drop. The vaccine is saving millions of lives globally.
