Not that I think you will change your mind but here is the study: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2110345 https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJM

Not that I think you will change your mind but here is the study: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2110345 https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2110345 "During the blinded, placebo-controlled period, 15 participants in the BNT162b2 group and 14 in the placebo group died; during the open-label period, 3 participants in the BNT162b2 group and 2 in the original placebo group who received BNT162b2 after unblinding died. None of these deaths were considered to be related to BNT162b2 by the investigators. Causes of death were balanced between BNT162b2 and placebo groups (Table S4)." Look into statins if you want to understand bias and corruption in clinical studies. Giving a medication to over 20,000 people and not saving a single life in 6 months is pretty weak. An NNT of over 20k is unheard of. Anything above 10-20 (not 10k) should make people at least be allowed to ask questions.

They did save two lives if you look at the death causes. 2 died of covid that were in the placebo group. There is also the numerous numbers of cases that didn't get severe covid and have long term negative side effects. Two people in the placebo group died of covid... that means they died fairly quickly and of covid directly meaning the illness was more severe. one person in the pfizer group died of covid pneumonia which means they were likely older and had a less severe infection but they still got pneumonia and died. The number of people that got covid or severe covid in the control group were many, many times more as the vaccine protected many from getting it in the first place.
