Our data team has been hustling on the vaccination data side. Some challenges we've been grappling with:
✅ Multiple data sources - (a) MoHFW/PIB and (b) CoWIN APIs. Primary source?
✅ Data differences between the 2 sources.

So, we have some updates. Read on 👇

1/4
✅ We are tracking CoWIN and MoHFW/PIB updates separately now.
✅ CoWIN data, though behind MoHFW numbers, gives us a richer set of data points to track.

📣 In a significant development, we are now tracking DISTRICT VACCINATION data.
Source - CoWIN APIs.

2/4
📣 Data sourced from CoWIN APIs:

✅ District vaccination data -
api.covid19india.org/csv/latest/cow…

✅ State vaccination data -
api.covid19india.org/csv/latest/cow…

📣 Data from MoHFW/PIB:

✅ National vaccination data - api.covid19india.org/csv/latest/tes…

3/4
✅ State vaccination totals from MoHFW: api.covid19india.org/csv/latest/vac…

MH reported 25.8k new persons with Covid19 today. Highest daily count for the state yet, surpassing 24.8k recorded on 11/09/2020.

How are the 2 spikes different? Few quick points:

➡️ More rapid rise in cases: In Sept. last year, it took a month to double the 7DMA from....

1/5
....10.5k cases/day to a 7DMA of 21k cases/day on 11th September.
Now, it has taken just 12 days for the 7DMA to double from 8k cases/day to 16k cases/day on 17th March.

The 7 day moving avg. graph of MH shows the steep slope for current spike. 👇

2/5
➡️ Larger spike in certain districts: There are a number of districts that are seeing a stronger wave this time than in September last year.

Aurangabad, Akola, Amravati, Buldhana, Nagpur, Nanded, Nashik, Parbhani, Wardha, Washim, Yavatmal: Current case load > Sept. 2020.

As we see an upward trend in cases, it's important to realise that we are seeing the natural course of the pandemic playing out.

➡️ Latest sero survey showed that a large % of us were still uninfected.
➡️ We've seen large social gatherings with most restrictions lifted.

1/6
➡️ Increased mobility across states, including crowded public transport.
➡️ New variants and possibility of waning antibodies.
➡️ Unfortunate non compliance to safety norms.
📣 It was only a matter of time that all these factors came together to result in another spike.

2/6
This time around, we have no national lockdown, rather we have activities back to 100% normalcy in most sectors and regions. This means that arresting the spread will be more challenging.

What can be done?
✅ One key study on the dynamics of transmission

Encouraging news from #covaxin Phase 3, 1st interim analysis:

✅ Estimated efficacy of 80.6%.

Efficacy based on first 43 cases amongst the 25.8k trial participants. 36/43 in placebo group and 7 in vaccine group = 80.6% estimated efficacy.

1/3
Note that as per initial P3 trial design, 130 +ve cases is the target to analyze final P3 efficacy. Interim efficacy was to be analysed at 43 and 87 cases. So, be aware that this is the first milestone (43 cases) and efficacy can change over the course of trial.

2/3
We will have to see the detailed paper on these results to flag any exclusions etc.

Nevertheless, this should bolster public confidence, especially at a time when larger groups are being vaccinated.

A wonderful compilation of vaccination experience shared by our readers across different cities.

It's a diverse set - some fully through Co-WIN, some walk-in, some Co-WIN + walk in etc.
Different locations have different ways of making it work.

Bengaluru:
My mother was the 1st person to be vaccinated in KA. We registered sharp at 9AM got the appointment and went and got vaccinated at 12 noon after inauguration. It's important to repeatedly try as server is loaded some of my relatives got appt after multiple tries.

Experience of a volunteer in our team who was able to book vaccination appointment on cowin.gov.in today:

➡️ Accessed the website few minutes past 9am. Entered mobile number to receive OTP.
➡️ Initially there was a delay in receiving the OTP.

1/n
➡️ The website took quite a while to move from the first screen to the next where OTP could be entered.
➡️ Received the OTP after a wait of 5 to 10 minutes. This looked to be an initial issue. Subsequent requests for OTP happened without delays.

2/n
➡️ Was presented with a screen to enter details of vaccine beneficiary. The data entry was straightforward with ID card type, number, name gender and year of birth required to be entered.
➡️ After doing the registration, there was option to enter additional beneficiaries.
