After discussion with the FDA, the companies recently elected to drop the 32-case interim analysis and conduct the first interim analysis at a minimum of 62 cases. Upon the conclusion of those discussions, the evaluable case count reached 94 and the DMC performed its first analysis on all cases. The case split between vaccinated individuals and those who received the placebo indicates a vaccine efficacy rate above 90%, at 7 days after the second dose.

I read this to mean that of the 94 people in the case study that have contracted COVID-19 thus far, 9 had received the (edit: not the placebo, the vaccine)! To derive a 90% vaccine efficacy based on that data seems rather insane to me, an utter layman. Maybe I've got this all wrong.
