Number of Participants With Solicited Local and Systemic Adverse Events (AEs) for 7 Days After First Vaccination Primary · Up to Day 8 (7 days after first vaccination on Day 1)

An AE is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participants administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with a clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product. Solicited local and systemic AEs were precisely defined events that participants were specifically asked about and which were noted by participants in the diary. Solicited local AEs included injection-site pain/tenderness, injection-site erythema and injection-site swelling/induration. Solicited systemic AEs included fatigue, headache, nausea, myalgia and fever.
