Table 4.

Side effects were reported in 36% of the centers, with thrombosis and thromboembolic events being the most relevant. The estimated rate of side effects excluding liver enzymes alteration was 1 case per 1000 of vaccinated patients. The vaccination efficacy was rarely evaluated, and 12% of the center reported ≥1 severe infection despite the vaccination.
