During the COVID-19 pandemic, clinical care shifted toward virtual and Emergency Department care. We explored the feasibility of mRNA vaccine effectiveness (VE) estimation against SARS-CoV-2-related Emergency Department visits and hospitalizations using prospectively collected Emergency Department data. We estimated two-dose VE using a test-negative design and data from 10 participating sites of the Canadian COVID-19 Emergency Department Rapid Response Network (CCEDRRN). We included Emergency Department patients presenting with COVID-19 symptoms and nucleic acid amplification testing for SARS-CoV-2 between July 19 and December 31, 2021. We excluded patients with unclear vaccination and one or more than 2 vaccine doses by their Emergency Department visit. Among 3,405 eligible patients, adjusted two-dose mRNA VE against SARS-CoV-2-related Emergency Department visits was 93.3 % (95 % CI 87.9–96.3 %) between 7–55 days, sustained over 80 % through 139 days post-vaccination. In stratified analyses, VE was similar among patients with select immune-compromising conditions, chronic kidney disease, lung disease, unstable housing, and reported illicit substance use. Two-dose mRNA VE against SARS-CoV-2-related Emergency Department visit was high and sustained, including among vulnerable subgroups. Compared to administrative datasets, active Emergency Department enrolment enables standardization for testing access and indication and supports separate VE assessment among special population subgroups. Compared to other active enrolment settings, Emergency Departments more consistently function during crises when alternate healthcare sectors become variably closed. Trial registration: Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT0470294.
