Waning Effectiveness of the Third Dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine
Open accessPreprint — published as 10.1038/s41467-022-30884-6 · Paper page
Abstract
The duration of protection of the third (booster) dose of the BioNTech/Pfizer BNT162b2 mRNA Coronavirus Disease 2019 vaccine has yet to be sufficiently researched, while global discussions around the necessity and effectiveness of a fourth dose are already underway. By conducting a retrospective study implementing a test-negative case-control design, analyzing 546,924 PCR tests performed throughout January 2022 by 389,265 persons who received three doses of the vaccine, we found that the effectiveness in each month since vaccination decreased significantly. Compared to those vaccinated early, on August 2021, relative protection against infection waned from 53.4% a month after vaccination to 16.5% three months after vaccination. These results suggest that there is a significant waning of vaccine effectiveness against the Omicron variant of the third dose of the BNT162b2 vaccine within a few months after administration and should prompt policy discussion as to additional booster doses and vaccine development.

In the citing paper
“Therefore, apart from potential scarcity of data in comparing to unvaccinated individuals, this eligible yet unvaccinated population in a massively campaigned environment such as Israel is plausibly different in terms health related behaviour, which could introduce a bias in rendering it the reference group,43 as has been pointed out in previous vaccination studies of Israeli populations measuring”

“Notwithstanding these limitations, consistent findings were reached, indicating rapid waning of vaccine protection against symptomatic Omicron infection that are consistent with findings of other studies for effectiveness against Omicron infection (with no BA.1/BA.2 subvariant specified)42–48.”

In the citing paper
“Nonetheless, compared with the previously demonstrated waning pattern of the relative vaccine effectiveness of three doses versus two doses in real world settings (which begins around three months after inoculation), the relative effectiveness of the fourth dose against infection appears to wane sooner, just as waning after the third dose was sooner than after the second dose.11 26”

“The waning of vaccine effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2 infection is consistent with previous observations of the second and third doses of the BNT162b2b vaccine.10 11”
In the citing paper
“Nonetheless, supporting this design were previous covid-19 studies implementing a test negative design that yielded comparable results to cohort studies on this population,6 11 while presenting diminished bias in the short term outcomes of vaccinee effectiveness.”
In the citing paper
“The lack of pre-defined PCR testing protocols implemented in the study population also presented a challenge. This limitation has been discussed extensively in previous covid-19 observational studies and could lead to potential biases relating to healthcare seeking behaviour.6 11 38 39”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
