Long Covid - Coding

Alan Campbell made this Official Information request to Ministry of Health

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Alan Campbell to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Alan Campbell

Dear Ministry of Health,

I understand that you have introduced codes to identify Long Covid and that you expect data to be available later in 2023, after experiencing a delay in implementing them.

Can you please advise whether these codes will differentiate between people that are experiencing Long Covid and HAVE been vaccinated, vs. those that HAVE NOT been vaccinated?

This seems to be an obvious requirement to understand any potential benefit of vaccinations.

If this data is not being collected in a way that enables this analysis can you please provide meeting notes, memo's emails, documents, presentations etc, that mention the development or implementation of the codes, AND, vaccination status.

Yours faithfully,

Alan Campbell
