Lay summary
We anticipate that our analysis will yield valuable lessons on how the shingles vaccine could be rolled out most effectively in the future, particularly with regards to which patient groups are prioritised.
Public benefit statement
Our project aims to test if there are health benefits of the shingles vaccine beyond only shingles prevention. If that is the case, then this evidence could serve as additional motivation for patients to get the vaccine and for General Practitioners to more proactively recommend shingles vaccination to patients. In addition, our project could help in the prioritization of the vaccine for certain patient groups
