  2. Definition

    This codelist was taken from OpenCodelists, created by OpenSAFELY. We recommend viewing this Phenotype on the OpenCodelist website to view the most recent version.

    Exclusion criteria for identifying COVID-19 in primary care when using a maximally sensitive codelist. This codelist has been created to be used in research where you are aiming to identify cases of COVID-19 in primary care using a maximally sensitive codelist (see references) and must then use an exclusion criteria to ensure you are not identifying patients incorrectly.

  3. Methodology

    To be used in combination with COVID-19 inclusion criteria codelists (see references). Codelist reviewed by Francis Collett-White. For full outcome phenotypes see Github issue in references
