It is not one study, national data from Denmark, UK, Germany and Canada shows that double vaccinated are infected at a higher rate. I am not jumping to conclusions that this means efficacy is negative, because that would require a controlled trial with an unvaccinated group. Do you catch my drift?
- fabian2k 5y agoPlease show the data that claims that double vaccinated are more likely to be infected than unvaccinated people by Omicron. And raw infection counts are not an answer here as the vaccinated and unvaccinated people are clearly not matched populations you can compare without adjustments.
- incrudible 5y ago> And raw infection counts are not an answer here as the vaccinated and unvaccinated people are clearly not matched populations you can compare... That's the point! That's why we need controlled trials. With an unvaccinated group. You know, the thing that you say we can't have, because it's unethical. > ...without adjustments. As usual, there's an XKCD for that: https://xkcd.com/2560/ https://xkcd.com/2560/
- bigfudge 5y agoThere’s no way of running a controlled trial of this sort when 80% of the population have already been vaccinated. You can design better or larger observational studies though.
