Eli5: Condom Effectiveness

607 views

What does it mean when the statistics say that condoms are, at best, 98% effective.

It sounds like 1/50 times a condom is used, it won’t prevent pregnancy. But this doesn’t seem right because those stats wouldn’t be worth the risk.

After seeing how some people wore masks during covid I am surprised the effectiveness is not much much lower.
