Depends on what the actual risk is:
> Using our regression discontinuity approach, we find that being eligible for the zoster vaccine caused a 1.3 (95% CI: 0.2 – 2.7; p=0.022) percentage point absolute, and 8.5% relative, reduction in the probability of a new dementia diagnosis over our seven-year follow-up period[0]
1.3% absolutely reduction seems like a big deal.
