This is for all types of death, not just covid deaths. The source of this data is UK government statistics available here: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths/datasets/deathsbyvaccinationstatusengland
Download the most recent xls excel sheet and look at Table 4, which shows the death rates, categorized by vaccine status.
Here are the most recent death rates per 100,000 for the week, for the last 8 weeks running (starting with the most recent week of Sept 24), for the 10-59 age group that makes up most of the population, representing a sample size of 24 million people:
Unvaccinated:
0.9, 1.3, 1.4, 1.4, 1.4, 1.5, 1.2, 1.4 (average of 1.31 deaths per 100,000 in an average week)
2 doses of vaccine:
2.2, 2.2, 2.7, 2.3, 2.2, 2.5, 2.6, 2.6 (average of 2.41 deaths per 100,000 in an average week)
21+ days after 1st dose:
2.1, 2.4, 2.5, 2.4, 2.3, 2.2, 2.0, 1.6 (average of 2.18 deaths per 100,000 in an average week)
So the vaccinated are 1.8 times as likely to die of any cause as compared to the unvaccinated in the UK. And this is an extremely robust dataset because it is so giant, encompassing 17 million vaccinated people and 7 million unvaccinated people.
So according to official UK data, they've literally doubled people's chance of death with the vaccines in England, according to these official statistics. England is using Pfizer-BioNTech, Oxford-AstraZeneca, Moderna and Janssen.
This is very clear-cut scientific evidence that the vaccine is resulting in a 1.8x increase in rate of death. It also shows those who got a second dose were also more likely to die than those who got only one. This needs more attention!
Earlier this month, the (UK) Office of National Statistics tweeted a claim that the age-adjusted mortality risk from COVID-19 is 32 times greater in the unvaccinated than in the vaccinated.
This seems to be in fact a statistical artifact, due to the time period covered, which includes a time when few if any people in the UK were vaccinated, and covers a wide variety of seasons (January to end September 2021), which confound the results. The original ONS figure in fact had a footnote emphasising that this is a constantly-changing, statistical result, and that it should not be be interpreted as a measure of vaccine effectiveness.
Here a former head of statistics at the ONS details how the media immediately picked up this figure and headlined it, as if it was a settled scientific result - without the ONS' own caveats, of course - and is asking whether the ONS (which as he points out, is highly respected in the UK) failed to correct these false claims.
Deliberately misleading tweet by ONS

Is the ONS COVID Survey PCR test a valid Day 2 test for returning to UK?
* I'm part of ONS Covid Survey (Get PCR + Blood tests once a month)
* Had an ONS PCR test today.
* Today is "Day 2".
* Returning from Portugal
I bought (pre-holiday) a PCR Day 2 test but seems a waste as I've had a PCR test today!
Hello everyone, Iβm Pete Benton, Director of Population and Public Policy Operations at the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
As today is World Statistics Day we thought you might like to ask us some questions about the next census weβre running on 21 March 2021.
The census is a survey that happens every 10 years and gives us a picture of all the people and households in England and Wales. Itβs been happening for over 200 years.
Everyone benefits from the census. Organisations like local councils, charities, businesses and the government use the information to plan the services your community needs - things like transport, education and healthcare.
Next year will be the 22nd census in England and Wales. Iβll be answering your questions alongside some of my specialist colleagues from 1pm β so Ask Me Anything!
EDIT: Thank you to everyone that took the time to post questions and comment, it has been a pleasure. Looking forward to Census 2021.
