Fact Check of the LifeSite Article: If you get the Pfizer vax, you're more likely to get COVID Part 1: Summary
A while back LifeSite News posted an article (link) claiming that the Pfizer vaccine made people more susceptible to the vaccine.
So I dug into the papers and spent about 8hrs+ to check into their claims. I did the math and mapped out my results (attached).
My conclusion is that, the data does not claim what they think it claims. The placebo incidence rate was about 140 cases / 1000 person years. When the placebo group was immunized, those not previously infected, had an incidence of 52 cases per 1000 person years.
Last time I checked, 52 is still less than 140.

P.S. A more detailed version of this containing my ramblings etc will follow tomorrow.
Study / Group | State | Cases | Surveillance Time | Population | Incidence |
Study A Grp A | Vaccine | 77 | 6.092 | 19711 | 12.6 |
Placebo | 833 | 5.857 | 19741 | 142.2 | |
Study A Grp B | Vaccine | 81 | 6.34 | 20533 | 12.8 |
Placebo | 854 | 6.11 | 20595 | 139.8 | |
Study B | Vaccine | 70.3 | |||
Placebo (Vaccinated Later) | 51.6 |
