* due to small number of events, brand specific VE in participants with previous infection could not be estimated

**Because of the low number of events, BNT162b2 vaccine effectiveness against hospitalization could not be calculated, and BBIBP-CorV vaccine effectiveness against medically attended COVID-19 and hospitalization could not be calculated.
