@nataliexdean Great thread, thank you! I wondered, when the follow-up times are expected to be variable between participants - would you suggest calculating VE from the incidence rate ratio (from Poisson) or hazard ratio (from Cox)? Or could you point to factors that might help you decide?

Halting funding for the World Health Organization during a world health crisis is as dangerous as it sounds. Their work is slowing the spread of COVID-19 and if that work is stopped no other organization can replace them. The world needs @WHO now more than ever.
