What happened
- April 2020
- 25.3
- 3-year median
- 110.6
- Change
- −85.3
- Change, per cent
- −77%
Why it matters
The value is judged against the median of the same period in up to five earlier years, using a robust measure of spread. A breach means this period sits well outside what those years would lead you to expect.
For MCV1 doses per 100 BCG doses, higher is better. This movement is therefore assessed as a deterioration.
Historical context
Same-period values: 2019 110.6, 2018 106.7, 2017 114.8. This comparison involves the COVID-19 disruption period (March 2020 – June 2021), when service use and reporting fell sharply.
