Listed are the results of the Poisson regression analysis in participants who received a booster vaccine and in those who did not receive a booster. The booster group includes data that were obtained at least 12 days after receipt of the booster dose.

The rate ratio is the estimated factor reduction in the rate in the booster group as compared with the rate in the nonbooster group.
