On inspecting the data, curous about employment data, which CIS dropped the ball on, I was depressed to read the ridiculous [c] in the relevant lines. (confidential). (table 4c)
I was then further depressed when I read the titles of the columns, and realise this survey does not track out of work due to covid/longcovid, hopelessly mixing them with the population of the ill/disabled for any reason.
Employment status, which was not properly done in CIS (it was conflated with off work for other reason) is one of the most valulable indicators of health.
Knowing how many people are off/out of work due to longcovid is kinda important, and at this point it's hard to avoid the conclusion that the design of the WIS is intended to make this uninterpretable in the results. I speak as someone unable to work for the last forty years post-virally.
Good to see you continuing to report now that iSAGE has wrapped up.
At the start of the pandemic the REACT study May 2020 survey showed the 18-24 years olds had the highest infection rates followed by 25-34 year olds. They were the infectious engine that kept the pandemic going. Not much has changed. Back then there was nothing systematic done about that and that has not changed either
Thank you for continuing to keep us informed

2.5 million oldies got an older vaccine not the xbb one. They are most probably not protected.
Would oldies GP record show which vaccine they received?
Clarification. surgery will know but not in individuals nhs record
No. So surgeries gave old useless version to over 75s even though recommendation was for newer version for these.
