* Partially vaccinated persons were excluded from this analysis.

A Pearson’s chi-square test was conducted for categorical variables and Kruskal-Wallis test for medians; p<0.001.

§ Race and ethnicity were defined as mutually exclusive categories. Hispanic or Latino includes all persons with ethnicity reported as “Hispanic or Latino” regardless of reported race. “Other” Race/Ethnicity includes persons of multiple races, and persons for whom reported race was “Other.” Missing values were included in statistical testing.

The primary vaccine series was used to categorize persons by vaccine manufacturer type regardless of which vaccine manufacturer was received for the booster dose.

** Infection date refers to the earliest of either the date of symptom onset, diagnosis, death, report received, or specimen collection.
