I think you might have misread the statement. She is explicitly talking about the CDC data, not about clinical trials. Most likely she doesn't make the distinction more clear, since is must be entirely obvious to an expert that clinical trials don't measure transmission rates.
- refurb 4y ago""not just in the clinical trials but it’s also in real world data.”" She expressly names clinical trials. That statement is false. And she says "CDC data". What data? The vaccines weren't approved until 14 Feb 2022. What data could the CDC possibly have other than clinical trial data less than 2 months after full approval? It hadn't been used outside trials yet for more than a month or so. What data could they possible *collect and analyze" in less than 2 months? If you can point me to this data, I'd gladly admit I'm wrong. The statement is a lie. I'm not sure why you're so aggressively defending it.
- fsh 4y agoThe EUAs for BioNTech/Pfizer and for Moderna were approved on December 10th and 17th 2020, respectively. By the beginning of April 2021, the US had fully vaccinated well over a hundred million people. Obviously the CDC had tons of data at this point. This discussion is pointless if you don't even bother to check such simple facts.
- refurb 4y agoYou are right but you failed to answer my questions. Please link to the CDC data. Otherwise I presume it doesn’t exist. And you failed to address that both trials never tested infection rates. Just because I got dates wrong doesn’t excuse you from addressing those two questions.
