  • CI=confidence interval.Patients can appear in more than one risk group. Patient numbers of 0-7 are shown as <8, with remaining numbers rounded to the nearest 10; as a result percentages might not add up to 100%. High risk groups are arranged in descending order, according to number of potentially eligible patients.

  • *In the publication on which this analysis is based, this group was labelled “primary immune deficiency,”10 but in the present study this group has been labelled according to the current NHS Digital policy (version 5).
