ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
In Singapore, quarantine of all close contacts with entry and exit polymerase chain reaction testing enabled evaluation of the impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination and pediatric age on transmission of the Delta variant.METHODS:
This retrospective cohort study included all household close contacts between 1 March 2021 and 31 August 2021.RESULTS:
Among 8470 Delta variant-exposed contacts linked to 2583 indices, full-vaccination of the index with BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273 was associated with reduction in acquisition by contacts (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.56; 95% robust confidence interval [RCI], .44-.71 and aOR, 0.51; 95% RCI, .27-.96, respectively). Compared with young adults (aged 18-29 years), children (aged 0-11 years) were significantly more likely to transmit (aOR, 2.37; 95% RCI, 1.57-3.60) and acquire (aOR, 1.43; 95% RCI, 1.07-1.93) infection, vaccination considered. Longer duration from vaccination completion among contacts was associated with decline in protection against acquisition (first-month aOR, 0.42; 95% RCI, .33-.55; fifth-month aOR, 0.84; 95% RCI, .55-.98; P < .0001 for trend) and symptomatic disease (first-month aOR, 0.30; 95% RCI, .23-.41; fifth-month aOR, 0.62; 95% RCI, .38-1.02; P < .0001 for trend). Contacts immunized with mRNA-1273 had significant reduction in acquisition (aOR, 0.73; 95% RCI, .58-.91) compared with BNT162b2.CONCLUSIONS:
Among household close contacts, vaccination prevented onward SARS-CoV-2 transmission and there was in-creased risk of SARS-CoV-2 acquisition and transmission among children compared with young adults. Time after completion of vaccination and vaccine type affected SARS-CoV-2 acquisition.Palabras clave
