Hello,
Because you are the ones calling the shots around here, I'll be sending you updates to the data
table I sent to you in the last email on a regular basis (each time it is able to be updated).Apparently, JCPH is now updating the percentage of cases among vaccinated and not fully
vaccinated individuals on Fridays now, so here are the updated data tables:

Since Monday (09/27/2021), 28 new cases have been added, of which 4 were among not fullyvaccinated residents and 24 were among fully vaccinated residents. This has further decreased
the gap in percentages between the two populations; that difference now stands at 9.2%(54.6%-45.4%=9.2%). (Note that this number is roughly one-fifth of the difference in the
percentages among the two populations using all data starting from 02/01/2021, much lower.)
I'd also like to note that JCPH has stopped including the number of test results pending, thenumber of negative test results and the number of people who have recovered. While I can
understand why the number of test results pending is no longer included and why the numberof negative test results is no longer being reported, the number of people who have recovered
is a very important number, as it shows how severe the virus is. This is a number people wouldlike to know. Why wouldn't the number of recovered cases be reported? I fail to see the
reasoning behind the removal of this statistic, and the reasoning provided ('in order tostreamline our reporting process during this time of high caseloads') doesn't make too much
sense, given that this data is no doubt recorded anyway.
Thank you for taking the time to consider this new data,
Sincerely,
Kincaid Gould
