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 ...

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...
Early COVID‐19 XBB.1.5 Vaccine Effectiveness Against Hospitalisation Among Adul...
Antunes, Liliana; Mazagatos, Clara; Martínez‐Baz, Iván; Naesens, Reinout; Borg, Maria‐Louise; Petrović, Goranka; Fatukasi, Terra; Jancoriene, LigitaWe conducted a multicentre test-negative case–control study covering the period from October 2023 to January 2024 among adult patients aged ≥18 years hospitalised with severe acute respiratory infection in Europe. We provide early estimates of the effectiveness of the newly adapted XBB.1.5 COVID-19 vaccines against PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 hospitalisation. Vaccine effectiveness was 49% overall, ranging between ...
Influenza vaccine effectiveness in Europe: Results from the 2022–2023 VEBIS (Va...
Maurel, Marine; Pozo, Francisco; Pérez‐Gimeno, Gloria; Buda, Silke; Sève, Noémie; Oroszi, Beatrix; Hooiveld, Mariette; Gómez, Verónica; Domegan, LisaBackground: Influenza A(H3N2) viruses dominated early in the 2022-2023 influenza season in Europe, followed by higher circulation of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and B viruses. The VEBIS primary care network estimated the influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) using a multicentre test-negative study. Materials and methods: Primary care practitioners collected information and specimens from patients consulting with acut...
