This page outlines the parts of the journal article (Wood et al. (2021)) which we will attempt to reproduce.

We do not have permission to upload and reuse images from the article, so please refer to the journal publication to view the figures and tables mentioned below.

Within scope

“Figure 4 Estimated numbers of deaths and life-years lost by triage strategy. Results are relative to baseline (no triage strategy).” Wood et al. (2021)

“Table 4 Estimated Number of Deaths and Life-Years Lost (Mean and 95% Confidence Intervals) over the Course of the Pandemic according to the Range of Demand Trajectories and Triage Strategies under Consideration.” Wood et al. (2021)

“Figure 5 Estimated number and type of death relative to baseline. Results provided for triage strategies with an age threshold of 60 y. Note that type 1 deaths are those resulting from declined admission, type 2 deaths are those resulting from interrupted admission, and type 3 deaths are those occurring during admission (see Figure 2).” Wood et al. (2021)

“Figure 6 Estimated intensive care bed occupancy and cumulative admissions and deaths over the course of the simulated pandemic. Results provided under the lockdown demand trajectory for triage strategies with an age threshold of 60 y.” Wood et al. (2021)

“Figure 7 Estimated numbers of deaths and life-years lost for various levels of intensive care capacity. Results provided under the interrupt triage strategy with an age threshold of 60 y.” Wood et al. (2021)
