description <h3>Background</h3><p dir="ltr">We investigated the contribution of age, coexisting medical conditions, sex, and vaccination to incidence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection and of severe, critical, or fatal COVID‐19 in older adults since pandemic onset.</p><h3>Methods</h3><p dir="ltr">A national retrospective cohort study was conducted in the population of Qatar aged ≥50 years between February 5, 2020 and June 15, 2023. Adjusted hazard ratios (AHRs) for infection and for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) outcomes were estimated through Cox regression models.</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">Cumulative incidence was 25.01% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 24.86–25.15%) for infection and 1.59% (95% CI: 1.55–1.64%) for severe, critical, or fatal COVID‐19 after a follow‐up duration of 40.9 months. Risk of infection varied minimally by age and sex but increased significantly with coexisting conditions. Risk of infection was reduced with primary‐series vaccination (AHR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.90–0.93) and further with first booster vaccination (AHR: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.74–0.77). Risk of severe, critical, or fatal COVID‐19 increased exponentially with age and linearly with coexisting conditions. AHRs for severe, critical, or fatal COVID‐19 were 0.86 (95% CI: 0.7–0.97) for one dose, 0.15 (95% CI: 0.13–0.17) for primary‐series vaccination, and 0.11 (95% CI: 0.08–0.14) for first booster vaccination. Sensitivity analysis restricted to only Qataris yielded similar results.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">Incidence of severe COVID‐19 in older adults followed a dynamic pattern shaped by infection incidence, variant severity, and population immunity. Age, sex, and coexisting conditions were strong determinants of infection severity. Vaccine protection against severe outcomes showed a dose–response relationship, highlighting the importance of booster vaccination for older adults.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses<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/10.1111/irv.13224" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1111/irv.13224</a></p><p dir="ltr">Additional institutions affiliated with: WHO Collaborating Centre for Disease Epidemiology Analytics on HIV/AIDS, Sexually Transmitted Infections, and Viral Hepatitis - WCM-Q, Hamad Bin Khalifa University, Qatar University Health - QU, </p>
