image: Mental distress before and after receiving the first dose. Note. PHQ-4 scores are standardized to have a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. Residuals are taken from a linear regression of standardized PHQ-4 scores against wave dummy variables and an indicator for ever vaccinated. For the ever vaccinated, the residual is plotted against the number of days before or since receiving the first dose. Observations are grouped by wave. Vertical line denotes the date when a vaccination dose was first reported. view more
