ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
A prospective cohort study at Kaiser Permanente Southern California was conducted to evaluate the relative vaccine effectiveness (rVE) of a booster-dose vs. 2-dose primary series of mRNA-1273 in immunocompetent individuals during periods of Delta and Omicron predominance.METHODS:
Immunocompetent adults who received a booster dose of mRNA-1273 from October through December 2021 were matched 11 to randomly selected 2-dose mRNA-1273 recipients by age, sex, race/ethnicity, and second dose date, and followed up through January 2022. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), comparing outcomes (SARS-CoV-2 infection, and COVID-19 hospitalization and hospital death) in the booster-dose and 2-dose groups. Adjusted rVE (%) was calculated as (1-aHR)x100. aHRs and rVEs were also estimated for SARS-CoV-2 infection by subgroups (age, sex, race/ethnicity, history of SARS-CoV-2 infection, pregnancy, chronic diseases), and for SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19 disease by month of follow-up.RESULTS:
The study included 431,328 booster-dose vaccinated adults matched to 431,328 2-dose vaccinated adults. rVE was 61.3% (95%CI 60.5-62.2%) against SARS-CoV-2 infection, 89.0% (86.2-91.2%) against COVID-19 hospitalization, and 96.0% (68.0-99.5%) against COVID-19 hospital death. rVE against SARS-CoV-2 infection ranged from 55.6% to 66.7% across all subgroups. rVE against SARS-CoV-2 infection decreased from 67.1% (0-<1 month of follow-up) to 30.5% (2-<3 months). For COVID-19 hospitalization, rVE decreased from 91.2% (0-<1 month) to 78.7% (2-<3 months).CONCLUSIONS:
Among immunocompetent adults, the mRNA-1273 booster conferred additional protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19 disease compared to the 2-dose mRNA-1273 primary series during periods of Delta and Omicron predominance.
