Great! Just know you can't obtain the risk of getting covid or dying from covid from this measurement.
Then it's a completely meaningless measurement because you can't compare one against the other.
Imagine a "study" that showed people driving cars with collision avoidance systems that were involved in crashes were twice as likely to die as people driving cars that didn't have collision avoidance systems that were involved in crashes. If you're retarded you'll think, "Wow, collision avoidance systems cause people to die." Without the number of total crashes for each group the comparison is meaningless. It could be that there was only one crash involving a car with a collision avoidance system, and it was a fatal one. Even if there were 20,000 crashes involving a car that didn't have a collision avoidance system and 10,000 of them were fatal, the original statement would still be true. It's true even though you're exponentially less likely to die in a crash driving a car with a collision avoidance system.
So, the only way for this data to show that being vaccinated is more likely to result in death is to show that vaccinated people are contracting covid at more than 50% the rate of unvaccinated people. Anything less makes the risk of dying from corona chan less if you're vaccinated.
It's useful in tracking a trend of delta covid cases and deaths in the timeframe of the measurement.
It clearly shows vaccinated UK people with delta variant are likely to die 8x over non vaccinated people in the UK with the Delta for this sample.
But I'm not trying to extrapolate it out from that to the general population or to mean anything about the rate if contracting covid overall across all variants (seems like you are though?)
If you want a sort of rate of contraction of covid in UK, you could divide the number of measured cases from here on each variant by the total population, but that's probably pretty flawed.
It clearly shows vaccinated UK people with delta variant are likely to die 8x over non vaccinated people in the UK with the Delta for this sample.
That statement doesn't mean anything without knowing how many people from the vaccinated and unvaccinated populations get Delta in the first place. If you're 8 times more likely to die of Delta when vaccinated but 10x more unvaccinated get Delta, then being vaccinated is still safer than not.
Table 5 and that link outline how many from both groups got Delta, but there are plenty of other sites that spell it out if you don't like that one...You seem super lost in the woods on some non-existant argument.
Good luck
