This is the second part of the discussion with Jason Morphett on Vaccine Side Effects Analysis, recorded on 2022-03-25 via Zoom in Ottawa. In this part, we' analyze the number of complications from COVID vaccine (including deaths) for various age groups, using data from US, UK and Canada, and compare it that from COVID infection. As noted in last week's seminar, Data gathered by various governments (including Canadian PHAC data) point to the fact that starting from summer 2021 young people (under 40 and esp. under 20) get more heath complications from COVID vaccine than from Covid infection. We'll show the exact numbers and how they are derived. Q&A from the Zoom chat: Q: IF somebody dies within a week or 2 after vaccine, how is that death counted, as unvaxxed or (partially/fully) vaxxed??? A: In the UK, they are counted as unvaccinated until over 2 weeks A: In Canada and US too.

The Zoom recording of the Seminar ( Data Science using Open Canada Data) animated by Dmitry Gorodnichy. 2022-03-18. Ottawa. Jason Morphett (former senior data scientist of British Telecom) is joining us from UK. We talk about official data that have been collected by Canadian, UK and US governments related to vaccine efficiency and side-effects, and how we can analyze and visualize it using contemporary data science tools. Dmitry talks about Canadian data and tools we developed here. Jason talks about UK and US data and the tools developed there. He describes The Coronavirus Adverse Vaccine Event (CAVE) project and present the Shiny App that he developed that performs semantic search and text analysis of US Government 's Vaccine Adverse Events database: https://vaccines.shinyapps.io/cave/. This is the first half of the presentation.

Recording of the "Lunch and Learn Data Science with Open Canada Data " meetup led by Dr. Dmitry Gorodnichy Sorry for bad wifi/sound quality. Data Source : "Cases following vaccination, COVID-19 Daily Epidemiology Update”, Public Health Agency of Canada (July 2021 - February 2022). https://health-infobase.canada.ca/covid-19/epidemiological-summary-covid-19-cases.html#9 , Archived reports: https://web.archive.org (cached: www.ivim.ca/data/phac1) Observation: Because PHAC computes statistics counting Deaths from the first day of Vaccination (December 14, 2020), when there was negligible percent of Fully vaccinated, the results reported by PHAC are skewed significantly (by order of magnitude) in favour of Fully vaccinated. The skew was most noticeable at early stages of reporting these statistics (July - September), when instead of the observed 10%-30% deaths among Fully vaccinated, PHAC reported only 1%-3% of them.
