Please refer to the readme file in the sandbox directory for full details of the available data.
The Finnish National Vaccination Register collects nationwide data on vaccinations directly from patient record systems. It covers vaccinations given in public primary health care and has been available since 2011.
The FinnGen vaccination registry data contains information about:
vaccination
the type of vaccine
which disease the vaccine is aimed to prevent
method and site of injection
approximate vaccination date
vaccination age, and product number
In addition, since DF9, the COVID variable has been added to the data. It describes whether the vaccination is a COVID vaccination or some other vaccination. The COVID variable has been constructed by combining information from several variables from the vaccination registry.
More information about the data is available from the Finnish National Vaccination Register (THL).
