ABSTRACT
Introduction: a study is carried out to determine the impact of vaccination on personnel assigned to the Maternal and Child Institute of the State of Mexico. Objective: to identify the impact of vaccination on the behavior of SARS-COV-2 infection in personnel assigned to the Institute Maternal and Child of the State of Mexico, during the period from March 2020 to May 2022. Material and methods: retrospective longitudinal analytical observational study, with a work universe of 312 people with laboratory-confirmed infection and who participated in the research survey. Statistical analysis was with descriptive statistics and association measures. Results: vaccination decreased the incidence of cases of primary infection and reinfection, risk of hospitalization and endotracheal intubation. The period of protection decreased over time and with the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 variants. Conclusions: vaccination favored the control of the pandemic, reducing the incidence and serious cases. The appearance of more transmissible variants and with evasion to the protection of the vaccines did not prevent the increase in incidence but maintained the decrease in serious cases.REFERENCES
