COVID-19 Science Updates

Sustained Effectiveness of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Vaccines Against COVID-19-Associated Hospitalizations Among Adults — United States, March–July 2021. Tenforde

et al

. MMWR (August 18, 2021). Vaccine effectiveness (VE) against hospitalization was 86% during the first 2–12 weeks post-vaccination, and 84% during the next 12 weeks.  

VE was 90% for people without immunocompromising conditions.  

VE was only 63% for people with immunocompromising conditions.

 

CDC now recommends that people whose immune systems are moderately to severely compromised should receive an additional dose of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, at least 4 weeks after their 2

nd dose, for a total of 3 doses.  

Slide7

COVID-19 Science Updates

7

New COVID-19 Cases and Hospitalizations Among Adults, by Vaccination Status — New York, May 3–July 25, 2021. Rosenberg

et al.

MMWR (August 18, 2021).Vaccine effectiveness (VE) against hospitalization was >90%, but VE against infection declined from 92% to 80% during May–July.  

Decline in VE against infection in adults coincides with rapid increase in the Delta variant, and relaxation of masking and physical distancing recommendations.  

Factors driving the apparent changes in VE were uncertain. 

Increased viral load of the Delta variant might underpin its increased transmissibility and could potentially lead to reduced vaccine-induced protection against infection.

COVID-19 Science Updates

Effectiveness of Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Vaccines in Preventing SARS-CoV-2 Infection Among Nursing Home Residents Before and After Widespread Circulation of the SARS-CoV-2 B.1.617.2 (Delta) Variant — National Healthcare Safety Network, March 1–August 1, 2021. Nanduri

et al

. MMWR (August 18, 2021).Among nursing home residents, pre-Delta (March–May) vaccine effectiveness (VE) against infection was 75%.

VE against infection declined to 53% during the Delta period (June–July). 

Lower VE could be caused by waning immunity, reduced protection against the Delta variant, or both.  

Vaccination of nursing home residents, as well as staff members and visitors, should be prioritized.

A potential need for another vaccine dose exists among populations at risk of severe COVID-19.
