Additional notes

  • Data entry of vaccination records is still in progress, therefore the dosage data may not be a full representation of all vaccination doses administered in Ontario.
  • The data does not include dosage data where consent was not provided for vaccination records to be entered into the provincial CoVax system. This includes individual records as well as records from some Indigenous communities where those communities have not consented to including vaccination information into CoVax.

Hospitalizations and cases by vaccination status

Hospitalizations

  • This is a new data collection and the data quality will continue to improve as hospitals continue to submit data.
  • In order to understand the vaccination status of patients currently hospitalized, a new data collection process was developed and this may cause discrepancies between other hospitalization numbers being collected using a different data collection process.
  • Data on patients in ICU are being collected from two different data sources with different extraction times and public reporting cycles. The existing data source (Critical Care Information System, CCIS) does not have vaccination status.
  • Historical data for hospitalizations by region may change over time as hospitals update previously entered data.
  • Due to incomplete weekend and holiday reporting, vaccination status data for hospital and ICU admissions is not updated on Sundays, Mondays and the day after holidays
  • Unvaccinated is defined as not having any dose, or between 0-13 days after administration of the first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.
  • Partially vaccinated is defined as 14 days or more after the first dose of a 2-dose series COVID-19 vaccine, or between 0-13 days after administration of the second dose
  • Fully vaccinated is defined as 14 days or more after receipt of the second dose of a 2-dose series COVID-19 vaccine

Cases

  • The cases by vaccination status may not match the daily COVID-19 case count because records with a missing or invalid health card number cannot be linked.
