Dataset description
Since 2 April, Public Health France no longer produces indicators for highly vulnerable people vaccinated against COVID-19 for an indefinite period.
### Vaccination against COVID-19
From the start of the vaccination campaign, the health authorities were provided with information to enable daily monitoring of the progress and deployment of the campaign on the territory. These, collected from institutions for the elderly and vaccination centres, were transmitted by the Regional Health Agencies.
At the same time, Health Insurance has developed the Vaccine Covid Information System (VAC-SI), which is now fully operational after an analysis of the completeness and completeness of the data.
The Vaccine Covid information system is powered by healthcare professionals carrying out vaccinations.
Based on the use of these data, Santé Publique France publishes in open data the vaccine coverage indicators.
#### What data?
Data from the Vaccine Covid information system allows a near-real-time count (J-1) of the number of people who have been injected with Covid vaccine, taking into account the number of doses received, the vaccine, age, sex and geographical level (national, regional and departmental).
The indicators available in open access on this dataset concern the cumulative number of highly vulnerable people vaccinated by injection date and vaccination coverage (whole France only)**
**They are declined on a scale: national, regional and departmental.**
Highly vulnerable people are defined as very high risk of serious form or death. They are identified a priori by Cnam on the basis of the recommendations of the High Health Authority (HAS) for priority persons for COVID-19 vaccine.
Identification is carried out in particular for persons benefiting from long-term effects (ALD), or by targeting CIM codes. This includes people with trisomy 21, transplanted with solid organ or haematopoietic stem cells, renal impairment (dialysed) and people with rare and severe pre-existing conditions or severe disabilities.
Only those for whom the department could be located are shown on the maps. Due to the time frame for entry into Covid Vaccine after vaccination in certain structures, a delay is needed to consolidate the data.
**From 07/04/2021, the age of vaccinated persons will be calculated from the date of birth (and not the year of birth only).
This implies, within Ehpad/USLS, a slight increase in immunisation coverage among professionals, which is accompanied by a slight decrease in immunisation coverage among residents. Overall, for all Vacsi indicators, this leads to some variations in age distributions.
#### Precaution of data use
Although the new injections are now seized over the water in Vaccin Covid, some injections since the end of December have not yet been entered in Vaccine Covid. In some regions, the Vaccine Covid data are now more complete than the increase made by the ARS, but in others this is not the case yet — especially in Île de France, Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur and Auvergne Rhône Alpes. The data that will now be published every day by Santé publique France at the date of injection will make it possible to report on this catch-up.
In the departmental files, if a line for a number of vaccinated at a given date is missing, it is that there was no vaccination that day in the department.
