You asked

Please can you provide, for 2019 - 2021 (current), the number of Covid Cases confirmed via PCR, in vaccinated and non-vaccinated people.

I can find the new cases online, however, I cannot find the data that shows the results in a vaccinated cases vs non-vaccinated layout. If the type of vaccination and "strain" could be shown in the data too, that would be brilliant.

Thank you for your request.

The COVID-19 Infection Survey is a household survey that estimates the number of people testing positive for infection and for antibodies in the UK. Our statistics refer to individuals in the community, by which we mean private households.

These figures exclude infections reported in hospitals, care homes or other institutional settings.

We do not hold data showing positive cases in vaccinated vs. non-vaccinated individuals. However, you may be interested in our technical article and accompanying dataset on positivity after vaccination, which shows the number of COVID-19 infections after vaccination by vaccine type.
