0 virus deaths reported from 520,000 given the Pfizer vaccine in Israel. Hardly anybody got sick,
suggesting 93% effectiveness.Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine was 93% effective at protecting against COVID-19, a leading Israeli healthcare provider announced Thursday.
The results appear to show the shot working as hoped across a massive sample of people, raising hopes that vaccine rollouts around the world will succeed.
Maccabi Healthcare Services said that it had immunized some 520,000 people with both required doses of Pfizer's shot.
It found that only 544 people had subsequently caught coronavirus seven or more days after getting their second dose.
