Effectiveness of the BNT162b2 mRNA Covid-19 vaccine in Spanish healthcare workers.
Article in Enfermedades infecciosas y microbiologia clinica (English ed.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionFrontline health care workers (HCW) have higher risk than the general population to become infected by SARS.CoV.2, so they were a priority group for Covid-19 vaccine administration. We compared the incidence and prevalence of HCW infected pre-and post-vaccination with the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. MATERIAL AND
methodsProspective observational study carried out between 01/12/20 and 07/03/21 in La Paz University Hospital, Madrid (Spain). SARS.CoV.2 positive cases in HCW after vaccination were collected and compared to those hospitalized COVID-19 patients at the same hospital.
resultsTwo weeks after finishing the first round of vaccinations daily new cases of HCW infections (symptomatic and asymptomatic) decreased substantially and cumulative cases of infected HCW and hospitalized COVID-19 patients started to diverge. No new positive cases of HCW infection were registered seven days after the second dose of BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.
conclusionsBNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine is highly effective in Spanish HCW.
