get_vaccine_age_groups: Get vaccination reports by age group

In canadacovid: API Wrapper for the Canadian COVID-19 Tracker

Get vaccination reports by age group

Description

Runs a GET request of vaccination data by age groups from the COVID-19 tracker API, and returns parsed data. Via the split argument, data may be "overall" (all provinces/territories combined), or by "province". Alternatively, provide one or more two-letter codes (e.g. "AB") to province to return reports for specific provinces.

Usage

get_vaccine_age_groups(
  split = c("overall", "province"),
  province = NULL,
  group = NULL,
  before = NULL,
  after = NULL
)

Arguments

split	One of "overall", or "province" to specify how the data is split. An "overall" report gives cumulative numbers across Canada. Splitting by "province" returns all reports for all provinces/territories.
province	One or more province/territory codes ("AB", "BC", "MB", "NB", "NL", "NS", "NT", "NU", "ON", "PE", "QC", "SK", "YT") to get reports. Upper, lower and mixed case strings are accepted.
group	A specific age group to return, for example: "0-4", "05-11", "30-39", "80+", "not_reported"
before	Returns reports from only on or before the specified date, in YYYY-MM-DD format.
after	Returns reports from only on or after the specified date, in YYYY-MM-DD format.

Value

A data frame with, one row per age group per date. Includes a province variable if data is split by province.
