We know that more than 80% of the infected people do not show any symptoms, and that around 0.5% (mostly elders) die from COVID.
Do the 90% addresses the death rate of those 0.5% ?

"Analysts specifically cast doubt on Pfizer and BioNTech's rollout plans given the stringent cold-storage needs for their candidate, which must be kept at a frigid -94° Fahrenheit (-70° Celsius), and will last for only 24 hours at refrigerated temps between 35.6°F and 46.4°F (2°-8°C).
By contrast, most protein subunit vaccines—the type being developed for COVID-19 by Sanofi and Novavax, among others—can be held at refrigerated temps for months, analysts said."
