get_vaccination_data: Time series of German COVID-19 vaccination data

In slausmeister/revolution: Analysis of COVID-19 Data in Germany

Description

get_vaccination_data() is used to create a tibble of vaccination data for regions and a certain age group. The time period can be defined by the user.

Usage

get_vaccination_data(
  ages = "all",
  regions = "Germany",
  from = "2020-12-26",
  to = Sys.Date(),
  vac_num = "all",
  cumulate = F
)

Arguments

ages	A string of the desired age group. Data is available for the groups "12-17","18-59" and "60+". The default value is "all", so that the data is not specified for a special age group.
regions	A vector that either consists of strings (the names of German districts or the names of German states) or district ID's. Warning: states and districts must not be mixed, so e.g. get_vaccination_data(regions=c("Sachsen","Heidelberg")) is not allowed. The default region is the whole country "Germany".
from	A date that specifies the beginning of the time series.
to	A date that specifies the end of the time series. The default value is today.
vac_num	Either 1 or 2 or "all". Indicates whether the first or second vaccine should be considered.
cumulate	A boolean that indicates whether the time series values should be absolute or cumulative.

Value

A tibble that contains the public vaccine data prepared in a user-specified way.

Examples

get_vaccination_data(ages="60+",regions=c("Heidelberg","Sachsen"),from="2021-06-07",vac_num=1,cumulate=T)

get_vaccination_data(ages="all",regions=c("Schleswig-Holstein","Niedersachsen"),to="2021-07-08")

## Not run: get_vaccination_data(regions=c("Germany","Heidelberg"))
#don't mix districts, states or "Germany

## Not run: get_vaccination_data(ages=12-17)
#age group must always be a string

## Not run: get_vaccination_data(from="2021-06-07",to="2021-05-06")
#'from' needs to be earlier than 'to'
