Not too verbose. Another fine article Igor. The potential confound that jumps out at me is the Simpson's paradox everyone knows about by now, but if you see the effect hold up when you stratify by age, that is totally off the table as far as I can see.

Eric, thank you for your encouragement. Yes, Simpson's paradox definitely is real, as you said, and this is exactly why the UKHSA data is so valuable, as it is stratified by age.

US CDC purposely gives incomplete statistics, so thank God for UKHSA.
