How many of recorded Deaths 28 days after vaccination were COVID related?

We're waiting for Claire Marcello to read recent responses and update the status.

Dear Public Health Scotland,

Please can you provide information on the breakdown by cause of death, for the deaths reported 28 days after vaccination, published on June 23rd 2021.

Specifically, could you provide info for each age cohort on deaths recorded as COVID related.

Also, relating to table 17 of the following weekly COVID Statistic report (accessed at:) https://publichealthscotland.scot/media/...

Please can you state how many of the deaths by age group listed as ‘Unvaccinated’ had not received a dose of vaccine (within 21 days prior to death or otherwise).

It strikes me that a high percentage of deaths reported to be ‘unvaccinated’ have received the vaccine up to 28 days prior to death.

This is very misleading to the public and I believe that the way data is presented should be reviewed, so that genuine ‘unvaccinated’ deaths- whereby no vaccine has been administered should be reported separately from those who have received a dose within prior 21 days of death- to accurately report on the situation for unvaccinated, and also to accurately assess impact of potential adverse effects of vaccination.

Yours faithfully,

Claire Marcello
