I'm very afraid of how they might monkey with the numbers. I can't believe they'll do this unless they think they can make it look favorable.

"Unvaxed people die 10000 times more than vaxed people, because they listen to us. We could show you the numbers but that would fuel vaccine hesitancy so we don't. Wait, they would fuel hesitancy because they are so good that they are hard to believe, not because they are bad. They are good, oh boy, good good. In fact, awesome. But you don't want to see them, believe us"

Well, well, well......well, well, well.....

So we are going to see some hard data? By vaccination status? that's been suspiciously absent for months? This should be very interesting. We'll have confirmation just how 'well (or poor)' the vaccine worked at preventing infection/hospitalization and death. I hope they release not just covid-19 deaths but all cause mortality so we can see if the vaccine is causing a rise in cancers/sudden deaths though. B/c covid-19 only accounts for a small bit of the excess death margin these days...

For real? Useful in it's ability to be useful? Holding our breath?

Hilarious they've been using only 79% of the population and it still looked s*** for the vaccinated

I wonder if it will be honest.

Do you believe the true proof in pudding will be the 2022 data released in 2024?

It’s problematic that we will not see 2022 data this year. The 2021 data they’re going to release this year will be lighter than the doubled-down vaccinated data of 2022. Unfortunately the upcoming release will only be based on 79% of the people based on 2021 info.

How useful will it be considering that the majority of the population are jabbed?

I'm not holding my breath for a 'truth bomb'.

But let's live in hope that it telegraphs some insight?

This brings a whole new meaning to ‘see it, and believe it’.

If the new data is based on the 2021 census it will include births since 2011 and immigrants since 2011. Under 10s weren’t vaccinated and immigrants since 2011 probably were less trusting of government vaccine advice (if my Polish friends are representative of that community). Immigrants are also younger than average. My guess is that this will boost the denominator of the unvaccinated category and reduce the unvaccinated death rate compared to the previous dataset.

In previous publications the executive summary and the commentary never matched the data in the tables. This method of report writing seems to be everywhere now - clinical trials, government agencies, science journals. Do it in a PhD thesis and you’ll get a fail. Do it in the civil service and you get a pat on the back and a fast track promotion.
