  1. The p value for comparing the NVSI-06-09 and BBIBP-CorV groups was calculated by using two-sided student’s t-test (or rank sum test) for continuous data (after log-transformation of antibodies) and two-sided Chi-square test for non-ordered categorical data
  2. n = participant number
  3. SD standard deviation, PCR polymerase chain reaction, IQR interquartile range
