VE estimates for pairwise combinations of symptoms that include a fever, cough, aches or muscle pain, sore throat, nausea, loss of smell or taste, or a headache in the absence of difficulty breathing or chest pain (mild illness), and pairwise combinations of symptoms that include difficulty breathing or chest pain (severe illness). Each box represents the interquartile range (IQR) of estimates, with the horizontal line inside the box indicating the median. The whiskers extend to the largest/smallest values up to 1.5 times the IQR. Outlier values are represented as points. Each VE estimate from the Delta and Omicron periods is derived from 64,283 and 79,697 survey responses, respectively.
