AE adverse event, ARV adverse reaction to vaccine

a The list of detailed AEs and ARVs by SOC and preferred term is presented in Supplementary Table 7

Number of subjects with AE (%) = (Number of subjects with AE in each category) / (Number of subjects in safety analysis set) x 100

Number of subjects with ARV (%) = (Number of subjects with ARV in each category) / (Number of subjects in safety analysis set) x 100

95% confidence interval for the percentage of subjects with AE/ARV was calculated by exact methods
