What Relative Risk Reduction REALLY Means: You've saved ONE in A THOUSAND

"Relative risk reduction is a way of exaggerating the benefits of any intervention, clearly which would be in the interest of people trying to sell you something - in this case, the pharmaceutical industry" Dr. Aseem Malhotra explains.

The REAL risk reduction (the ABSOLUTE risk reduction) for the Covid vaccines is a mere 0.84%.

Partial Transcript:
When vaccine efficacy was declared at 95%, relieved governments gave the green light. But Dr. Malhotra argues that the methodology was flawed.

“Relative risk reduction is a way of exaggerating the benefits of any intervention, clearly which would be in the interests of people trying to sell you something, in this case the pharmaceutical industry. So if, for example you have a thousand people in a trial that didn't have the vaccine, vs a thousand people that did, in the placebo group, in the dummy group. you may have two people dying, and in the intervention group you may have just one person dying. And that's a reduction of 50%, one over two is a 50% relative risk reduction, but actually I've only saved one life out of 1000, so the absolute risk reduction is only one in a thousand… it’s a big difference.”

‘The guidance has been, for many years, that we must always use absolute risk reduction in conversations with patients, not just relative risk reduction alone, otherwise it's considered unethical.”

The accusation is that governments acted on Pfizer's relative risk figure of 95% efficacy when the absolute risk was a mere 0.84%. In other words, you'd have to vaccinate 119 people to prevent just one from Catching Covid.

“So we were basically sold him something that ultimately, in retrospect in retrospect now, was very, very misleading.”
