I saw an interesting point (I think it was a scientist quoted in the NYT) that said once a vaccine out in the general public, it gets incredibly hard to get good efficacy numbers, because there are so many things that correlate with vaccine status—age, wealth, risk level, attitude towards COVID, geographical area—that also can affect risk of being infected/hospitalized.
