A new indicator that takes multiple situations into account

The arrival of single-dose vaccines, notably the Janssen vaccine, and the recommendation for a third dose for immunocompromised individuals are developments that require certain indicators to be adapted. This is the case with the “people vaccinated with two doses” indicator, which is being replaced by “people fully vaccinated” against COVID-19. This new indicator covers various situations without distinguishing between them, such as:

• People who have received two doses of vaccines requiring two doses (Pfizer, Moderna, or AstraZeneca vaccines)

• People who have received a single dose of a vaccine requiring only one dose (Janssen vaccine)

• People who have received one dose of the Pfizer, Moderna, or AstraZeneca vaccines if they have a history of COVID-19

• People who have received three doses of the vaccine, such as those at particularly high risk, including immunocompromised individuals.

The definition of this indicator will evolve in line with updated recommendations. The “fully vaccinated individuals” indicator is available on the Géodes mapping platform.
