Cohort
Follow Up
When possible, participants are followed from pre-vaccine through 12 months following their second or third dose of vaccine, or up to 6 months post dose 4 (if applicable).
Supplementary Information
Participants are joining the study at different timepoints in their vaccination journey and not all visits apply to all participants.
