Addition: I checked how many people below age 14 have gotten the jab. It seems that below age 12 only those considered 'at risk' got jabbed. At a link from ONS that has changed in the meantime (but the searchengine still had part of it), I read " As of 9 January 2022, 52.5% of pupils aged 12 to 15 years and 69.7% of pupils aged 16 to 17 years in state-funded schools in England have received at least one dose"
So for practical purposes I assume that 0% age 1-12 and 55% age 12 and 13 got the jab. The weighted average is thus (12*0+2*0,55)/14 = 8% of kids 1-14 yrs got at least 1 jab
Yet there is more. The youngest child included in the 2023 statistic was 13 at 2023-12-31. At 2021-12-31 (very close to the mentioned date of 2022-01-09) the same child would have been 11. So the 2023 excess mortality statistic will include only a very limited amount of vaxxed children. Ed Dowd suggests that the vax is directly responsible for the mortality, but that is not the case imo. Other, more indirect explanations are in my OP
