Frequently Asked Questions (7)
Q2. How many people were prevented from getting a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine?
Indirect protection in the non-vaccinated could only be estimated 66for naïve individuals, at 81.4% (73.3%-90.3%) and up to 12.8 (9.4-16.2) infections 67 prevented per 10.000 indirectly protected per day.
Q3. How many people have received a Covid-19 vaccine?
Acceptance has been very high, with 97.8% 108 of all institutionalized persons (any institution type) having received at least one 109 vaccine dose, and 88.8% two doses [4].
Q4. How many days after the first dose of the LTCF vaccine?
269 A study in LTCF in Connecticut experiencing COVID-19 outbreaks found a 63% 270 protection with partial vaccination (between 14 and 28 days of the first dose), close to 271 their estimates, with unchanged results after excluding those with previous infection 272 [9].
Q5. What is the effect of a first dose of a vaccine on VE?
A 273 Danish study in pre-print [10], has found no protective effect of a first vaccine-dose, a 274 52% reduction in days 0-7 after the second dose and 64% beyond day 7.
Q6. What was the risk of previous infection in the study?
in a separate analysis the authors 214 found that previous infection in the reference period was associated to a risk reduction 215 of 86.6% (85.2%-87.8%), higher than the estimate for complete vaccination.
Q7. How many previous infections were found in the study?
A previous SARS-CoV-2 infection 56 was found in around 25% and 13% of participants, respectively, at the time of vaccine 57 offer and in the reference period.
