COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness in the paediatric population aged 5-17 years: a ...
Soares, Patricia; Machado, Ausenda; Nicolay, Nathalie; Monge, Susana; Sacco, Chiara; Hansen, Christian Holm; Meijerink, Hinta; Martínez-Baz, IvánBackground: During the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccination programmes targeted children and adolescents to prevent severe outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Aim: To estimate COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) against hospitalisation due to COVID-19 in the paediatric population, among those with and without previously documented SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods: We established a fixed cohort followed f...
Effectiveness of the XBB.1.5 COVID-19 Vaccines Against SARS-CoV-2 Hospitalisati...
Antunes, Liliana; Rojas-Castro, Madelyn; Lozano, Marcos; Martínez-Baz, Iván; Leroux-Roels, Isabel; Borg, Maria-Louise; Oroszi, BeatrixWe estimated the effectiveness of the adapted monovalent XBB.1.5 COVID-19 vaccines against PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 hospitalisation during the BA.2.86/JN.1 lineage-predominant period using a multicentre test-negative case-control study in Europe. We included older adults (≥ 65 years) hospitalised with severe acute respiratory infection from November 2023 to May 2024. Vaccine effectiveness was 46% at 14-59 days ...
COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against symptomatic infection with SARS-CoV-2 BA...
Lanièce Delaunay, Charlotte; Martínez-Baz, Iván; Sève, Noémie; Domegan, Lisa; Mazagatos, Clara; Buda, Silke; Meijer, Adam; Kislaya, IrinaBackground: Scarce European data in early 2021 suggested lower vaccine effectiveness (VE) against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron lineages than previous variants. Aim: We aimed to estimate primary series (PS) and first booster VE against symptomatic BA.1/BA.2 infection and investigate potential biases. Methods: This European test-negative multicentre study tested primary care patients with acute respiratory symptoms for SAR...
Relative vaccine effectiveness against COVID-19 hospitalisation in persons aged...
Fontán-Vela, Mario; Kissling, Esther; Nicolay, Nathalie; Braeye, Toon; Van Evercooren, Izaak; Holm Hansen, Christian; Emborg, Hanne-DortheSince 2021, the Vaccine Effectiveness, Burden and Impact Studies of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and influenza (VEBIS) project monitors vaccine effectiveness (VE) in real-world conditions to inform vaccination programmes in the European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) countries [1]. One project aims to monitor real-time COVID-19 VE using electronic health registries (EHR) in multiple countries, wit...
Effectiveness of the adapted bivalent mRNA COVID-19 vaccines against hospitalis...
Antunes, Liliana; Mazagatos, Clara; Martínez-Baz, Iván; Gómez, Verónica; Borg, Maria-Louise; Petrović, Goranka; Duffy, Róisín; Dufrasne, François EThe European Medicines Agency (EMA) authorised four adapted bivalent mRNA COVID-19 vaccines for use against COVID-19 in September/October 2022: Comirnaty (BNT162b2; Pfizer-BioNTech) and Spikevax (mRNA-1273; Moderna) Original/Omicron BA.1 and Original/Omicron BA.4–5 [1]. During autumn 2022, all European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) countries had vaccination campaigns in place to administer a booster dos...
Vaccine effectiveness against COVID-19 hospitalisation in adults (≥ 20 years) d...
Rose, Angela M.C.; Nicolay, Nathalie; Sandonis Martín, Virginia; Mazagatos, Clara; Petrović, Goranka; Baruch, Joaquin; Denayer, Sarah; Seyler, LucieIntroduction: The I-MOVE-COVID-19 and VEBIS hospital networks have been measuring COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) in participating European countries since early 2021. Aim: We aimed to measure VE against PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 in patients ≥ 20 years hospitalised with severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) from December 2021 to July 2022 (Omicron-dominant period). Methods: In both networks, 46 hospitals...

Rose, Angela M.C.; Nicolay, Nathalie; Sandonis Martín, Virginia; Mazagatos, Clara; Petrović, Goranka; Niessen, F Annabel; Machado, AusendaIntroduction: Two large multicentre European hospital networks have estimated vaccine effectiveness (VE) against COVID-19 since 2021. Aim: We aimed to measure VE against PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalised severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) patients ≥ 20 years, combining data from these networks during Alpha (March–June)- and Delta (June–December)-dominant periods, 2021. Methods: Forty-six participati...
Health and economic impact of seasonal influenza mass vaccination strategies in...
Sandmann, Frank; van Leeuwen, Edwin; Bernard-Stoecklin, Sibylle; Casado, Itziar; Castilla, Jesús; Domegan, Lisa; Gherasim, Alin; Hooiveld, MariëtteIntroduction: Despite seasonal influenza vaccination programmes in most countries targeting individuals aged ≥ 65 (or ≥ 55) years and high risk-groups, significant disease burden remains. We explored the impact and cost-effectiveness of 27 vaccination programmes targeting the elderly and/or children in eight European settings (n = 205.8 million). Methods: We used an age-structured dynamic-transmission model to ...
Effectiveness of complete primary vaccination against COVID-19 at primary care ...
Kissling, Esther; Hooiveld, Mariëtte; Martínez-Baz, Iván; Mazagatos, Clara; William, Naoma; Vilcu, Ana-Maria; Kooijman, Marjolein N.; Ilić, MajaIntroduction: In July and August 2021, the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant dominated in Europe. Aim: Using a multicentre test-negative study, we measured COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) against symptomatic infection. Methods: Individuals with COVID-19 or acute respiratory symptoms at primary care/community level in 10 European countries were tested for SARS-CoV-2. We measured complete primary course overall VE by ...
Vaccine effectiveness against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection in adults aged 6...
Kissling, Esther; Hooiveld, Mariette; Sandonis Martín, Virginia; Martínez-Baz, Iván; William, Naoma; Vilcu, Ana-Maria; Mazagatos, Clara; Domegan, LisaThe I-MOVE-COVID-19 network collates epidemiological and clinical information on patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19), including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virological characterisation in 11 European countries [1]. One component of I-MOVE-COVID-19 is the multicentre vaccine effectiveness (VE) study at primary care/outpatient level in nine European study sites in eight c...
