aFully vaccinated = 7 days + post second dose.

bSevere disease efficacy included for ages >40 years.

cEffectiveness data against Beta infections were not included in this analysis.

dInfections were >95% Delta in the timeframe analysed.

eOnly effectiveness data from Scotland was used, as this was the only cohort that used an unvaccinated reference cohort.

fEffectiveness data from a cohort comprised exclusively of individuals over 80 years of age was not included in our analysis.
