Thank you for your enquiry.
Unfortunately, we do not hold analysis showing how many people have died from COVID-19 after receiving two doses of the COVID-19 vaccination by vaccine type specifically. In order to provide this, we would need to create a complex dataset linking vaccination records and death records. Public authorities are not obligated to create information in order to respond to requests. We therefore consider this to be information not held.
However, we are currently working on analysis on a number of aspects of the relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and mortality, including:
Information regarding deaths after 21 days of vaccination, from any cause.
Information regarding deaths involving or due to COVID-19 after receiving COVID-19 vaccination. This will include details regarding the number of doses people have received and whether these occurred within 3 weeks of vaccination or less than 3 weeks of vaccination.
The provisional release date for these publications is 13 September 2021. Once publication dates are finalised, they will be announced on our Release Calendar.
You can also find the number of deaths involving COVID-19 (not restricted to first or second vaccination) in table 12 of our Monthly Mortality Analysis dataset, these include figures for deaths involving adverse reactions to the COVID-19 vaccination. There are currently 4 deaths registered with the aligning ICD-10 codes for this (U12.9). The latest data available is July 2021. This publication is due to be updated in September 2021.
