  1. All HR shown correspond to cause-specific Cox regressions also adjusted for the following covariates: sex, age category, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and wave and inter-wave sub-periods; they are reported per additional vaccine dose (i.e. 2 vs. 0 or 1, 3 vs. 2, and 4 vs. 3, respectively).
