Local analyses on those clinically extremely vulnerable to COVID-19 Networked Data Lab partner reports on the impact of shielding
15 June 2021
As part of our research on the impact of shielding on those clinically extremely vulnerable (CEV) to COVID-19, the Networked Data Lab has published analysis exploring the needs of CEV people, demographic variation in those advised to shield, and the impact of shielding on hospital use.
Further novel analyses have been carried out by each of our partners, examining local level linked data. Each partner has focused on an issue which has significance for their local area.
