2) The number of each of the above that occurred in persons after reception of 1 or more doses of Covid-19 vaccines for the year 2021. For clarity, if a person received dose 1 on March 1st , then the risk window (exposure period) would be March 1st to December 31st . If a person received dose 1 on December 1, then the risk window will be December 1st -December 31st.
3) The number of each of the above that occurred within 7 days of date of dose 1
4) The number of each of the above that occurred within 7 days of date of dose 2
(Note, for items 3 and 4 I realise that since vaccination status is recorded as it was 7 days prior to hospital admission these may not show up as ‘vaccinated’ and there may not be a way to extract them from the data. If this is the case-please confirm as much)
5) The number of each of the above that occurred 8 and 21 days of date of dose 1
6) The number of each of the above that occurred 8 and 21 days of date of dose 2
