IRR = Incidence Rate Ratio; OR = Odds Ratio
a 3dose is the population three-dose PCV13 coverage, scaled from 0 to 1 so that 1 = 76% to give an estimated effect (B1) at 76% coverage, the level reached in the post-PCV13 period; L1.dres is the deviance residual for the previous month in an identical model without the dres term in it, which was added to adjust for residual autocorrelation in the time-series
Observations = 29; these are the 30 calendar months in time (January 2012 to June 2014) minus one due to the inclusion of the one-month lagged residual term L1.dres
