I can’t comment on this but Unsurprisingly as shielding ended in Mar 2021 study found: - If you are CEV/CV you are more likely to get symptomatic covid than if you are not vulnerable. - esp when includes care homes who were sealed in with undiagnosed hosp
@martinmckee @chrischirp @Kit_Yates_Maths Our 2021 study using real data (rather than modelling) found that shielded individuals had a higher Covid-19 infection rate compared with non-shielded individuals, after adjusting for sociodemographic factors, nurs
@WesPegden @gregggonsalves @ashishkjha @JamesSurowiecki Too be honest, this worked out pretty badly in the UK. Some policies could have helped but many weak points in the system -- home/relative care, multigenerational households etc...can't be fixed rapid

Early in the Covid-19 pandemic, the elderly and people who were clinically extremely vulnerable were asked to shield to reduce their risks of Covid-19 infection and its complications. We evaluated the effectiveness of shielding in a recent @BJGPOpen paper.
Those shielding during UK #lockdown had a higher #COVID19 infection rate than non-shielding individuals even adjusting for #nursinghome status. Research from @Kings_SPHES & @Imperial_PCPH suggests shielding alone may not be enough to protect patients.
A study in @BJGPOpen indicates that #UK residents who participated in a shielding program experienced higher rates of #COVID19 infection than those who did not. Learn more: https://t.co/L30BOegpKe https://t.co/JxgWUYTu7z
