re: 83% of Covid-19 deaths were among the Fully Vaccinated past month in UK

I'm looking at the data here and it's not really showing what this article is showing. I was curious and the data pretty much says the opposite of what the article says.

Public health data for week 38



Page 14 and 15 will give you the death rate and hospitalization rate among those vaccinated versus unvaccinated.

80+

Vaccinated death rate per 100,000: 49.5
Unvaccinated death rate per 100,000: 156

Vaccine reduces the death rate by 65% among the 80+.

Vaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 54
Unvaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 141

Vaccine reduces the hospitalization rate by 70% in the 80+ group.


70-79:

Vaccinated death rate per 100,000: 13
Unvaccinated death rate per 100,000: 66.4

Reduction in death rate among the vaccinated: 80%.

Vaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 28
Unvaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 92

Reduction in hospitalization rate: 66%.

60-69:

Vaccinated death rate per 100,000: 4.5
Unvaccinated death rate per 100,000: 13.1

Vaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 13.9
Unvaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 74

50-59:

Vaccinated death rate per 100,000: 1.4
Unvaccinated death rate per 100,000: 12.4

Vaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 8.3
Unvaccinated hospitalization rate per 100,000: 51.5



It's clear that vaccination is reducing the death rate significantly. Among the elderly (80+), vaccination seems to have reduced death rates by 65%. This is even more significant as the most vulnerable older people in the UK are even more likely to be vaccinated.

The data shows a similar trend for hospitalization. I'd urge everyone to read the data instead of reading junk newspapers that fit the narrative that you agree with.

For every age group (even the young) in the UK, hospitalization rates and death rates are much lower among the vaccinated compared with the unvaccinated. Exercise a bit more caution when you post articles please.

The bottom line is, vaccines seem to be working from the data the UK government has published.
