age - Age
chronic_disease - Chronic disease
med_prof - Healthcare worker with patient contact/carer for people at especially high risk
contact_vuln - Close contact with people at especially high risk
contact_comm - Lives/works in communal facility with an elevated risk of infection and outbreak
other - All other not further specified indications (rest of the population).

all - sum of all specific indications ('age', 'chronic_disease', 'med_prof', 'contact_vuln', 'contact_comm', 'other')
risk_groups - sum of all risks groups (includes indications types 'age', 'chronic_disease', 'med_prof', 'contact_vuln' & 'contact_comm')
not_vaccinated - remaining unvaccinated part of the population (only applies to type="COVID19FullyVaccPersons"), reduced data available compared to other vaccination indication types
