Abstract

This research will evaluate how effective vaccines are at preventing hospital admissions and deaths from respiratory diseases. It will also analyse how commonly COVID-19 antivirals have been used to manage COVID-19 and whether the people recommended to receive antivirals actually received them. Data linkage will be used to bring together information on vaccine-preventable diseases, hospitalisations, deaths and COVID-19 antivirals.
