Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Randomization will be stratified block randomization, with stratification based on sex. Two strata will be defined, and within each stratum, permuted block randomization will be performed. Permuted randomized blocks with a size of four and a ratio of 1:1 will be created.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Due to the different shapes of the vials, the preparation and filling of syringes takes place in a different location than the injection site. The nurse responsible for preparing the vaccines uses identical syringes for all vaccine groups and delivers them to the injection nurse, who is unaware of the vaccine group being administered to the patient. The nurse who evaluates adverse events after vaccination is also blinded to the intervention group.
