In the "Conclusion and next steps" section the following statements were made:
"Monitoring and evaluation of indicators of health care access, uptake of therapeutics,
vaccination and severe outcomes (for example, hospitalisation and mortality) following
infection could also provide insight into related factors contributing to health inequity.
Manatū Hauora will continue to analyse data on these indicators. It will undertake
further exploration of vaccine effectiveness and is identifying options for reporting on
disabilities in collaboration with partner agencies. The Public Health Agency will
publish the results of future analyses." Further, in the Discussion section is was that "Manatū Hauora is planning a further analysis of vaccination as a separate report."
Please provide status of the further analysis of vaccine effectiveness, and where or when these analyses will be published.
Yours faithfully,
Mr T. Baker
