Näihin sairastuvuus ja kuolleisuuslukuihin, jotka on laskettu ennen kuin ketään on rokotettu:
As reported to SAGE on 7 July 2009, cases continue to
occur mostly in teenagers and young adults, with rates
of hospitalization highest in very young children. Be-
tween 1–10% of clinical cases have required hospitaliza-
tion, and 10–25% of hospitalized patients have needed
admission into intensive care units (ICUs). A fatal out-
come was recorded in 2–9% of hospitalized patients.
Pregnant women have a 10 times higher likelihood of
requiring admission to an ICU compared with the gen-
eral population; 7–10% of all hospitalized cases are
women in their second or third trimester of pregnancy.
Severe outcomes occur more often when underlying
medical conditions are present, such as chronic lung
diseases (including asthma). SAGE found insufficient
evidence at this time to classify obesity as an indepen-
dent risk factor in the absence of co-morbidity. While
health-care systems in most countries have been able
to cope with the burden of cases of pandemic (H1N1)
2009, a substantial additional burden has occurred, with
pressure on emergency wards and ICUs particularly
acute in some locations. SAGE considered that its previ-
ous recommendations on target populations for priori-
tizing pandemic vaccination remained appropriate.
