A 5% failure rate doesnt mean an increase in death rate though, this would still be reduced to 0.25% of a much smaller pool of patients. The death rate is also likely higher as testing hasnt always been accurate and the requirements for a death to be counted as covid related have changed and will continue to change. The vaccine is still a huge achievement and a vital part in moving out of lockdown I feel.
