Detailed Description:
This study is a global multi-center , case-driven, randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled phase Ⅲ clinical trial in participants aged 6 months to 17 years.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two dose of CoronaVac® against RT-PCR confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 cases in participants aged 6 months to 17 years.The experimental vaccine and placebo were both manufactured by Sinovac Research & Development Co., Ltd. A total of 14,000 healthy participants aged 6 months to 17 years will be enrolled, and randomly assigned into 2 groups at a ratio of 1:1 to receive 2 doses of experimental vaccine (600SU) or placebo with an interval of 28 days.
