Abstract:BackgroundThe interpretation of relative vaccine effectiveness (rVE) of improved influenza vaccines is complex. Estimation of burden averted is useful to contextualise their potential impact across different seasons. For the population aged under 65 years in Australia, this study estimated the additional morbidity and mortality that could be averted using improved influenza vaccines.MethodsWe used observed, season‐specific (2015–2019) influenza notification and influenza‐coded hospitalisation frequencies and p… Show more
