This is how I understood the results: 4300 people in study so 2150 (half) got vaccine. 94 people got infected so .0218 or if you look at only the vaccinated .0437 i.e. less than 5%. If I had tried to present conclusions based on 5% results in my economics studies they would have laughed me out of the room.
