Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present test-negative design study aims to estimate the real-world effectiveness of Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine on symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection and its consequences following a mass vaccination campaign in the city of Toledo in Southern Brazil.

Individuals aged 12 years or older who seek the public healthcare system with symptoms suggestive COVID-19 will be enrolled. Participants with a positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for SARS-CoV-2 will be classified as cases, and those with negative PCR test for SARS-CoV-2 will be classified as controls. Cases will be followed-up for a period of one year by means of structured telephone interviews.

Fully vaccinated with BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine

Defined as 2 doses of Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine received with ≥7 days between receipt of the 2nd dose and acute respiratory illness (ARI) symptom onset. This group will serve as the 'exposed' group evaluated in the primary objective.

Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine

Ever vaccinated with BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine

defined as ≥1 dose of Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine received with ≥14 days between receipt of the 1st dose and ARI symptom onset.

Intervention Type DRUG

Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine

Partially vaccinated with BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine

Defined as 1 dose (only) of Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine received with ≥14 days between receipt of the 1st dose and ARI symptom onset.

Never vaccinated

Defined as never received any COVID-19 vaccine. This group will serve as the reference exposure group (i.e., 'unexposed' group) in all vaccine effectiveness analyses.

No interventions assigned to this group

Fully vaccinated plus booster dose of BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine

Defined as fully vaccinated with available COVID-19 vaccines according to the manufacturer recommendations plus booster dose of BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine received with ≥14 days between receipt of the 1st dose and ARI symptom onset.
