TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a two-step hierarchical random spline modeling approach to estimate global and regional disruptions to routine immunisation using administrative data and reports from electronic immunisation systems, with mobility data as a model input.

TL;DR: This study presents estimates of the proportion of individuals with at least 1 of the 3 self-reported Long COVID symptom clusters in 2020 and 2021, which were more common in women aged 20 years or older by sex and for both sexes of nonhospitalized individuals younger than 20 years of age.
