Characteristics correspond to the set of individuals who received at least one dose in each group. To be considered as fully vaccinated per protocol, an individual had to receive two vaccine doses on schedule (25–35 days apart for mRNA-1273 and 18–28 days apart for BNT162b2) and be at risk for infection as of their date of full vaccination (14 days after the second dose). For the matched analysis, only the matched pairs in which both individuals were fully vaccinated per protocol were considered.
