Additional remarks
Vanaf 1 november 2020 tot 1 november 2021 waren er in Nederland 51.889 opnames van COVID patiënten in het ziekenhuis. Dit betreft dus zo’n 50.000 opnames per jaar (< 20% betreft IC opnames). Dit is de beste data die voorhanden is maar het aantal ziekenhuisopnames kan komend jaar wel af wijken gezien het verloop van de COVID epidemie (dit is onder andere afhankelijk van het aantal gevaccineerde personen, de verschillende varianten van het virus die in opkomst zijn en hoe snel deze zich verspreiden en de overheidsmaatregelen gedurende het jaar). Van deze patiëntengroep zal slechts een deel in aanmerking komen voor dit geneesmiddel.
