a Gender collected in TESSy as female, male, other (e.g. transgender) or unknown (not shown in table).

b Hospitalisation is defined as hospitalisation for clinical care (n = 197). Hospitalisation for known isolation (n = 129) is included as not hospitalised for clinical care. Regressions were performed for cases for which there was complete data for the specific variables included in each model. Adjusted OR includes hospitalisation as a binary outcome and age (categorical) and vaccination (binary) as explanatory variables. Vaccinated include those vaccinated for smallpox prior to this outbreak.
