Pre-defined risk factors include chronic liver, lung, and heart disease, diabetes mellitus, tobacco use, and alcohol consumption. The risk factor of alcohol consumption is defined as an AUDIT-C score ≥5. Reported AEs include non-serious AEs at Days 1–14 post-vaccination and SAEs at Day 1–Month 6.

AE: adverse event; AUDIT-C: Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test – Consumption; PCV13: 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine; SAE: serious adverse event; V114: 15-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.

All injection-site AEs were considered related to the vaccine by the investigator.

Determined by the investigator to be related to the vaccine.
