Table 2. Vaccine effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2 infection and other COVID-19 associated outcomes in Minnesota.
Incidence is calculated as the number of individuals experiencing the given outcome per 1000 at-risk person-days. The columns are: (1) Time Period: Time period relative to first or second vaccine dose; (2) Outcome: The defined COVID-19 related outcome, including a positive SARS-CoV-2 test or COVID-19 associated hospitalization, ICU admission, or death. (3–5) Incidence Rates: Number of individuals with in the cohort experiencing the outcome in the time period, divided by the number of at-risk person-days for the cohort in the time period; in brackets and parentheses, the number of cases per 1000 person-days and the number of individuals contributing at-risk person-days. (6–8) Incidence Rate Ratio: Incidence Rate of the given vaccinated cohort divided by the Incidence Rate of the unvaccinated cohort, along with the exact 95% confidence interval. Vaccine effectiveness is calculated as 100 × (1-IRR). (8) Incidence Rate Ratio: Incidence Rate of the mRNA-1273 cohort divided by the Incidence Rate of the BNT=162b2 cohort, along with the exact 95% confidence interval.12
