      Chemaitelly, Hiam; AlMukdad, Sawsan; Ayoub, Houssein H; Altarawneh, Heba N; Coyle, Peter; ... more authors ( Massachusetts Medical Society , 2022 , Article)
      The BNT162b2 vaccine against coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) has been authorized for use in children 5 to 11 years of age and adolescents 12 to 17 years of age but in different antigen doses. We assessed the real-world ...

    • Effectiveness of two and three doses of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines against infection, symptoms, and severity in the pre-omicron era: A time-dependent gradient 

      Layan, Sukik; Chemaitelly, Hiam; Ayoub, Houssein H.; Coyle, Peter; Tang, Patrick; ... more authors ( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)
      BackgroundVaccines were developed and deployed to combat severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. This study aimed to characterize patterns in the protection provided by the BNT162b2 and ...
