Figure 1.
Illustration of the calculation of short-term loss of health-related quality of life (HRQoL).
HRQoL is plotted against time; the area of the black triangle represents the loss of HRQoL due to illness.
Figure 2.
Age-specific distribution of questionnaires sent, questionnaire response, and vaccination status for confirmed cases of measles.
The right columns of each age group show the age-distribution of questionnaires sent to confirmed measles cases (left axis); the left columns show the age-distribution of responses (left axis), split into those who are have received no MMR vaccinations (black), one MMR vaccination (diagonal stripe) and two MMR vaccinations (horizontal stripe).
Figure 3.
Flow chart for the study showing the number of questionnaires that were distributed to confirmed measles cases; the number of questionnaires returned for analysis; and the number of questionnaires returned for analysis that included the necessary information for EQ-5D-3L health utilities to be calculated.
