You asked
Under the Freedom Of Information Act 2000, I request the following data to be released:
How many people have died after receiving one or two Covid-19 vaccinations in the United Kingdom, from the first date vaccination roll out began to the latest date death records are available at the time this email has been received.
As well as the total number of deaths above, can these deaths be further categorised into age groups relevant to the targeted vaccination programme, for instance, 0-19 years, 80 years and above etc, to include all peoples vaccinated from beginning of roll out to the same current date.

Thank you for your request.
We are responsible for the production of mortality data for England and Wales, this is driven by information collected from the death certificate at death registration. National Records Scotland (NRS) and Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency (NISRA) are responsible for statistics pertaining to Scotland and Northern Ireland. Therefore, we do not hold the requested information for the whole of the UK. If you would like to request this data for Scotland and Northern Ireland, NRS and NISRA can be contacted at foi@nrscotland.gov.uk and info@nisra.gov.uk respectively.
The number of deaths involving adverse reactions to the COVID-19 vaccination in England and Wales can be found in table 12 of our Monthly Mortality Analysis dataset. There are currently 0 deaths registered with the aligning ICD codes for this. However, should this change, they will be updated in this table.
It may interest you to know that we are currently developing our analytical plans with an intention to publish analysis on the effectiveness of vaccinations soon. Once we have finalised these plans a publication date will be announced on our Release Calendar.
