- be aged 18 years or greater at time of the index visit
- have no COVID-19 associated hospitalisation in the six months prior to the index event
Influenza 2014-2019
- have a hospitalisation (index event) between September 1st 2014 and 1st April 2019
- with a record of influenza in the 3 weeks prior and up to end of hospitalisation
- be aged 18 years or greater at time of the index visit
- have no influenza associated hospitalisation in the six months prior to the index event
Influenza 2009-2010 season

Each of these cohorts were identified without any requirement for prior observation time, and also with the added restriction of having a minimum of 365 days of prior observation time available. CUIMC used a specific cohort definition for COVID-19, which accounted for local coding practice. SIDIAP included a further COVID=19 cohort where only individuals identified up to the end of March were included (where primary care linkage ended).
