• Delta

• Beta

• Alpha

• Omicron

What aspect of the vaccines is being evaluated in the study?

• Cost effectiveness

• Immune response

• Production time

• Side effects

• Participants know which vaccine they receive

• Researchers know which vaccine participants receive

• Neither participants nor researchers know which vaccine is administered

• Only researchers know which vaccine is administered

How are participants assigned to different vaccine groups in the study?

• Based on their age

• By their choice

• Randomly

• Based on their health condition
