Are you aware of statistics that aren't being published by the CDC?

There was a statistically significant reduction in infection rates of the vaccine group when compared to the control group. Granted, there's no way to control for random exposure, but 5-6 infections in the group that got the vaccine compared to 40-something (iirc, I don't have the trials in front of me, but we went over them at work) infections in the control group is promising.

That said, we are looking at a small sample size in a VERY compressed timeline.
