​Thank you for your enquiry

We are responsible for producing mortality statistics for England and Wales, this is driven by information collected from the death certificate at death registration.

The data presented in our Deaths by vaccination status, England dataset relies on complex linkages of data from several sources, included vaccination data supplied to us by NHS Digital and Test and Trace data provided by Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC). The dataset covers weekly age-standardised mortality rates and age-specific rates for deaths involving COVID-19 and all deaths by vaccination status between the 2 January and 24 September of 2021.

Unfortunately, we do not hold information on hospital admissions. This data is held by NHS Digital. They can be contacted via email at enquiries@nhsdigital.nhs.uk, and by telephone at 0300 303 5678.
