Abstract

Despite various platforms, vaccines are expected to be an essential effort to control COVID-19. Phase 3 clinical trials for CoronaVac, one of the inactivated virus vaccines, in Indonesia showed a promising efficacy of 65.3%. This study aimed to assess CoronaVac effectiveness in health workers against symptomatic COVID-19 and its severity after the vaccination program started on 13 January 2021. It was a case-control study with a ratio of 1 case: 4 controls. Data collection was conducted from August to October 2021 in several hospitals and primary health centers in 14 cities/regencies of Indonesia. Cases were health workers with symptomatic COVID-19, confirmed by RT-PCR or antigen rapid test in the period of 13 January 2021 to the data collecting time. Controls were health workers never been diagnosed with COVID-19. Hospitalized subjects’ data were extracted from medical records and input by an enumerator into LimeSurvey, an online survey tool. Non-hospitalized subjects and non-COVID-19 subjects filled the questionnaire by themselves in LimeSurvey. A total of 913 cases and 3342 controls met the criteria. CoronaVac effectiveness was analyzed and adjusted for gender, age, and comorbidity. Fully vaccinated gave 92.1% (95% CI 90.0—93.8; p = 0.0001) effectiveness in preventing symptomatic COVID-19; 96.4% (95% CI 95.3—97.3; p = 0.0001) for moderate/severe cases and 70.3% (95% CI 56.9—79.6; p = 0.0001) for mild cases. Partially vaccinated only gave 27.5% (95% CI 0.11—47.4; p = 0.049) effectiveness in preventing symptomatic COVID-19 incidence. It concludes that 2 doses of CoronaVac are effective to prevent symptomatic and moderate to severe cases in health workers.
