description <h3>Objective</h3><p dir="ltr">This study examined the initial impact of a national BNT162b2 vaccine rollout on SARS-CoV-2 infections in Qatar.</p><h3>Methods</h3><p dir="ltr">All individuals who had completed ≥14 days of follow-up by 16 March 2021 after receiving the BNT162b2 vaccine were included. This study calculated incidence rates (IR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) during days 1–7, 8–14, 15–21, 22–28, and >28 days post-vaccination. Poisson regression was used to calculate incidence rate ratios (IRR) relative to the first 7-day post-vaccination period.</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">A total of 199,219 individuals with 6,521,124 person-days of follow-up were included. SARS-CoV-2 infection was confirmed in 1877 (0.9%), of which 489 (26.1%) were asymptomatic and 123 (6.6%) required oxygen support. The median time from first vaccination to SARS-CoV-2 confirmation was 11.9 days (IQR 7.7–18.2). Compared with the first 7-day post-vaccination period, SARS-CoV-2 infections were lower by 65.8–84.7% during 15–21, 22–28, and >28 days (P < 0.001 for each). For severe COVID-19, the incidence rates were 75.7–93.3% lower during the corresponding time periods (P < 0.001 for each).</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">The results were consistent with an early protective effect of BNT162b2 vaccine against all degrees of SARS-CoV-2 severity.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: International Journal of Infectious Diseases<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ijid.2021.05.021" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ijid.2021.05.021</a></p>
