Subjects are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply: Age and Sex: 1. Male or female participants ≥16 years of age, at randomization. • Refer to Appendix 2 for reproductive criteria for male and female participants. Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics: 2. Participants who are willing and able to comply with all scheduled assessments, vaccination plan, laboratory tests, lifestyle considerations, and other study procedures. 3. Healthy participants who are determined by medical history, physical examination (if required), and clinical judgment of the investigator to be eligible for inclusion in the study. Note: Healthy participants with preexisting stable disease, defined as disease not requiring significant change in therapy or hospitalization for worsening disease during the 6 weeks before enrollment, can be included. Specific criteria for Phase 3 participants with known stable infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), or hepatitis B virus (HBV) can be found in Appendix 3. 4. Participants who, in the judgment of the investigator, are at higher risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection and subsequent development of COVID-19 (including, but not limited to, use of mass transportation, relevant demographics, and frontline essential workers). Informed Consent: 5. Capable of giving personal signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent document (ICD) and in this protocol.

Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply: Medical Conditions: 1. Other medical or psychiatric condition including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation/behavior or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk of study participation or, in the investigator's judgment, make the participant inappropriate for the study. 2. Phase 2 only: Known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), or hepatitis B virus (HBV). 3. History of severe adverse reaction associated with a vaccine and/or severe allergic reaction (eg, anaphylaxis) to any component of the study intervention(s). 4. Receipt of medications intended to prevent COVID-19. 5. Previous clinical or microbiological diagnosis of COVID-19. 6. Immunocompromised individuals with known or suspected immunodeficiency, as determined by history and/or laboratory/physical examination. 7. Bleeding diathesis or condition associated with prolonged bleeding that would, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicate subcutaneous injection. 8. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Prior/Concomitant Therapy: 9. Previous vaccination with any coronavirus vaccine. 10. Individuals who receive treatment with immunosuppressive therapy, including cytotoxic agents or systemic corticosteroids, eg, for cancer or an autoimmune disease, or planned receipt throughout the study. If systemic corticosteroids have been administered short term (<14 days) for treatment of an acute illness, participants should not be enrolled into the study until corticosteroid therapy has been discontinued for at least 28 days before study intervention administration. Inhaled/nebulized, intra-articular, intrabursal, or topical (skin or eyes) corticosteroids are permitted. 11. Receipt of blood/plasma products or immunoglobulin, from 60 days before study intervention administration or planned receipt throughout the study. Prior/Concurrent Clinical Study Experience: 12. Participation in other studies involving study intervention within 28 days prior to study entry and/or during study participation. Other Exclusions 13. Investigator site staff or Sponsor employees directly involved in the conduct of the study, site staff otherwise supervised by the investigator.
