Empty cell: guideline does not explicitly mention evidence or outcome. #: qualitatively considered. ¶: composite end-point of need for IMV or death. +: includes guidelines which only provided recommendations against casirivimab/imdevimab or recommended against casirivimab/imdevimab for at least one disease severity category and reported insufficient evidence for any other categories.
