In a test-negative, case–control study involving more than 900,000 participants in Qatar, vaccine effectiveness peaked at 77.5% in the first month after the second dose. The effectiveness fell thereafter to as low as 20% in months 5 through 7 after vaccination, but protection against serious Covid-19 remained greater than 90% for at least 6 months.
