I find it absolutely negligent that no Western government has gathered and published up-to-date statistics so we can determine our OWN risk profile, based upon age, vaccination status, and several of the major comorbidities.

Why, it's almost like it's not about public health at all, and they're not here to serve us.

Also, no mention of vitamin D, no serious funding of studying existing medications, almost no public endorsements of monoclonal antibodies... it's really a disgrace.

Agreed, the fact that no health authorities that I've seen have suggested getting more vitamin D or getting into better shape is tragic and is my go-to point when people start pestering me about being an anti-vaxxer - it is painfully clear the pandemic response has not been about health.

Imagine if, instead of having two years of fear, we'd used the two years to encourage people to exercise and eat better? Imagine the lighter load we'd have on the healthcare system!

While I have far to go, just about one year ago when realizing the summer of 2020 really put me and my mind and my body in a bad place, I started with a personal trainer. I'm so much stronger, taking daily vitamins, (could be eating a bit healthier, but hey there's room for improvement!), and feeling much happier. To top it off I had Covid last Easter and while it was an annoying type of cold, got rid of it and feel great. There's no way in hell I'd get the vaccine at this point. I know several people with bad side effects and it is not worth it to my 54 year old self. It IS too bad that we didn't get this encouragement from our medical, government, and media. Now our malcontents are even more mal even less content...

It's as if.... there's an ulterior motive! :(

I don't suppose they included data on the missing donut hole? E.g. vaccinated with one or more doses prior to 14 days after second dose? Or, data on vaccinated with one or more doses at any time post that dose?

There are raw numbers in the report on "Received one dose (1-20 days before specimen date)" & "Received one dose (≥21 days before specimen date)" but not rates. Nothing on "Received two dose (<14 days before specimen date)"

Apparently the injury rates are highest after the 2nd dose.

I wouldn’t call it an epidemic of the old when the sick are not being given medicine that could cure them and are given medicine and ventilators that will kill then.

What are the pre-COVID 19 death rates?

I’d like to see heart attacks, heart surgeries and cancer surgeries data surrounding the administration of the shots.

I see no date range. That needs to be added.

I mention that it’s from UK report 45, which is a report on weeks 41-44 of 2021.
