28 RCTs (n=286 915 in vaccination groups and n=233 236 in placebo groups; median follow-up 1–6 months after last vaccination) across 32 publications were included in this review. The combined efficacy of full vaccination was 44·5% (95% CI 27·8–57·4) for preventing asymptomatic infections, 76·5% (69·8–81·7) for preventing symptomatic infections, 95·4% (95% credible interval 88·0–98·7) for preventing hospitalisation, 90·8% (85·5–95·1) for preventing severe infection, and 85·8% (68·7–94·6) for preventing death
Maybe you can screenshot the part that asserts that these are RCTs.
Never mind that this is from September 2021 and has little or no relevance to today when 95% or higher have already been exposed to Covid through infection or vaccine.
That’s what really matters. Here and now. And the absolute risk reduction.
Nah. You are only going to repeatedly change the goalposts. You stated that there were only observational studies. I asked if you believed in RCTs. Now you reject RCTs. I provided you the link.
The target population matters. Science does change, but I still don’t see where this is RCT data even for the time you cite. CDC is also a very questionable source.
I know the meaning of RCTs. I realize that you are the one who refuses to look at medical data in an unbiased fashion. You accept only sources that agree with your point of view.
No point in further communication. Enjoy the New Year.
Do you have one to cite? One that addresses the hospitalization rates of vaccinated people in United States?
All of those that I know of are bullshit observational studies, completely useless due to confounding factors.

The study was of children and adolescents. These are the “low-risk” groups for adverse COVID outcomes.

Are you a medical or healthcare researcher?
Do you know what RCTs are? What confounders are?

I guess you are right. You still didn’t show me RCT.
