Detailed Description
The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of two-doses of TURKOVAC and two-doses of CoronaVac vaccines against symptomatic COVID-19 disease confirmed by real time-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in adolescents (12-18 years of age).
After the second dose of vaccine administration, the immunological responses of TURKOVAC and CoronaVac vaccines will be demonstrated by neutralizing antibodies and anti-spiked antibodies.
A total of 644 subjects will be enrolled. Subjects will be assigned according to randomization (1:1) for 2 different arms. The assigned vaccine will be administered to subjects in two doses on days 0 and 28.
