From the same article. Did you actually read the whole thing, for comprehension?
Fewer deaths
Research by independent scientists and public health experts has shown the positive impact vaccinations are having in preventing serious illness - particularly against the Omicron variant.
One study suggests people three months after a second vaccine dose are 70% less likely to develop severe disease from an Omicron infection, dropping to 50% after six months.
Another has found double-vaccinated people are 65% less likely to be admitted to hospital with Omicron than those unvaccinated.
Also, many countries with high rates of vaccination have been experiencing very high Covid infection levels but far fewer deaths than during previous peaks.
And, he wasn;t talking about the Covid vax....
Other social-media posts, videos and podcasts also directly referenced Mr Schachtel's newsletter but took it further, suggesting Mr Bourla's comments cast doubt on whether the vaccine was "safe and effective".
Several posts also referred to unrelated comments by Mr Bourla, on the US news channel CNBC, that vaccines "don't have the safety profile that we hope we can achieve with [mRNA] technology".
However, on this occasion, he had not been talking about Covid vaccines at all.
'Zero' protection
A full transcript of the interview clearly shows Mr Bourla was talking about another vaccine - against the shingles virus - Pfizer plans to update.
Mr Schachtel's newsletter initially made this mistake and later corrected it - but not before these comments had been picked up by former US congressman Ron Paul, who has a large social-media following.
In a YouTube video, Mr Paul explicitly referenced Mr Schachtel's newsletter when he repeated claims Mr Bourla had said the Covid vaccine was not safe and provided no protection against Omicron.
Claims Pfizer had "admitted... current vaccines 'do not work'" or "offer 'zero' protection against Covid-19", linking to Mr Paul's YouTube clip, then spread across numerous online platforms.
Other than all that, good job!
