a

Based on the complete case analysis, records with missing age, sex, chronic condition, vaccination status are dropped.

b

Crude VE adjusted by study site.

c

Data adjusted for age (restricted cubic spline or age group), onset date (restricted cubic spline), sex, chronic condition and study site unless otherwise indicated.

d

Study sites included in A(H1N1)pdm09 all ages and ≥9 y analysis: DE, ES, FR, HR, HU, IE, IT, NL, PL, PT, RO, SE; HU and HR not included in A(H1N1)pdm09 0‐14 y analysis; HR not included in A(H1N1)pdm09 15‐64 y analysis; study sites included in A(H1N1)pdm09 clade 6B.1 analysis of all ages and 15‐ to 64‐y‐olds: DE, ES, FR, HU, IE, NL, PT, RO, SE; HU not included in A(H1N1)pdm09 clade 6B.1 0‐14 y analysis; study sites included in B 0‐14 y analysis: DE, ES, FR, IE, IT, NL, PL, PT, SE; study sites included in B 15‐64 y analysis: DE, ES, FR, HU, IE, IT, NL, PL, PT, SE; study sites included in B 65 y and older analysis: DE, ES, FR, HR, HU, IE, IT, NL, PL, SE.

e

Adjusted by age and study site only.

f

Due to heterogeneity of VE estimates against influenza B between age groups, no “all ages” estimate against influenza B was attempted.

g

Adjusted by time and study site only.
