expert reaction to preprint reanalysing study of real-world Pfizer vaccination outcomes after one dose from Israel
A preprint, an unpublished non-peer reviewed study, estimates the effectiveness of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine after one dose by reanalysing a study of ‘real-world’ vaccination outcomes from Israel.
Dr Peter English, Consultant in Communicable Disease Control, Former Editor of Vaccines in Practice Magazine, Immediate past Chair of the BMA Public Health Medicine Committee, said:
“This preprint demonstrates an important aspect of good science: that researchers share their source data with others, so that others can reanalyse the data. This permits validation/verification (or repudiation) of the original scientists’ conclusions and also – as here – permits further conclusions to be drawn from the data, beyond those drawn (or published by) the original researchers.
