PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 9 months

Population: Only subjects with valid phone numbers at the time dose 1 was dispensed received dose 1.

13 percentage of eligible participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 9 months

Population: Only subjects with a valid phone number at the time dose 2 was dispensed received the vaccine. The number of subjects receiving dose 2 is higher than dose 1 because some phones numbers that were inactive during dose 1 were active during dose 2.
