aNumber of individuals in the vaccine exposure group. bNumber of events is the number of individuals with an incident consultation in the post-vaccination period. Percent is the number of events divided by n and should be equal to 8.34% if there is no association between vaccination and the event representing the 10:1 ratio of controls to cases. cAdjusted for number of clinical risk group, socioeconomic status and number of RT–PCR tests an individual had before 8 December 2020. n ≤ 5 denotes minimum allowable reported value.
