Documentation

In January 2025, the Welsh Immunisation System Dataset (WISD) superceded the CVVD (COVID-19 Vaccinations) dataset in SAIL. WISD contains additional vaccinations, including for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

This dataset covers patients and vaccinations administered or planned, in or funded by the NHS. Dataset is a de-identified record-level data of people who have received a vaccination, including details of the type of vaccine and date of vaccination.

In October 2022, Welsh Government published The National Immunisation Framework, which sets out the ambition to create a “person centred digital vaccination journey”.

Access request cost
Data provision is free from SAIL. Overall project costing depends on the number of people that require access to the SAIL Gateway, the activities that SAIL needs to complete (e.g. loading non-standard datasets), data refreshes, analytical work required, disclosure control process, and special case technological requirements.
Access method category
TRE/SDE
Access service description
The SAIL Databank is powered by the UK Secure e-Research Platform (UKSeRP). Following approval through safeguard processes, access to project-specific data within the secure environment is permitted using two-factor authentication.
