The discussion focuses on the availability of up-to-date data sources for COVID-19 vaccinations and cases in the United States, specifically segmented by age and sex. Key resources include the CDC's COVID Data Tracker, which provides demographic information on vaccinations and COVID-19 cases. Users express a need for raw data to facilitate analysis, as the aggregated data is inconsistently grouped across different categories, complicating comparative studies. The conversation highlights the importance of reliable data for understanding vaccine demographics and COVID-19 impacts.
PREREQUISITESPublic health researchers, data analysts, epidemiologists, and anyone involved in studying COVID-19 vaccination impacts and demographics.
I wish there was raw data I could find. The aggregated data by age is grouped differently for cases, vaccinations, and adverse events, which makes it incompatible for analysis.Ygggdrasil said:This site has info on COVID-19 vaccine demographics: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#vaccination-demographic
Similarly it has demographic data for COVID-19 cases: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#demographics
Hopspitalizations and deaths from COVID-19 would probably have nationwide statistics available (e.g. from the CDC site), but I'm not sure if data on other specific adverse events would be available (though there are plenty of studies that estimate their frequency).
