    Abstract BCG vaccine may enhance the innate immune response as well as induce a specific immunity against SARS-CoV-2, which may potentially be associated with reduced severity of COVID-19, and may or may not necessarily be protective against SARS-CoV-2 infection. The effect from BCG vaccine was observed even decades after the vaccination.

    Abstract The real world COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness among the urban underserved Hispanic/Latino populations is unknown. We evaluated the mRNA vaccine effectiveness in preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections at a major federally qualified health center in Providence, Rhode Island, and a total of 38,602 patients were included. Time period was used as the SARS-CoV-2 variant proxy. Compared to the unvaccinated group, the adjusted vaccine effectiveness for 2 doses of BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 were 94.6% and 97.5% respectively against the alpha variant/wild type, which dropped to 64.8% and 65.0% respectively against the delta variant and 31.6% and 25.6% respectively against the omicron variant. However, once received the booster dose (3rd dose) of BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273, the vaccine effectiveness against the omicron variant improved to 79.9% and 71.2% respectively. Improving the COVID-19 vaccine education and encouraging to receive a booster dose may help further reduce the burden of SARS-CoV-2 infection in this population.
