General comment | Cases from 20 June to 17 July 2021 extracted from a PDF of a presentation from the Israeli Ministry of Health with methods from Haas EJ, et al. Lancet. 2021. 397(10287):1819-1829. Prevalence of Delta variant was not reported but states, "Follow-up period shifted to weeks when delta variant dominated sequenced strains in Israel". Concerns over the lack of adjustment for important confounders, potential exclusion of those who only received one dose or newly vaccinated people, and no pre-defined statistical plan available. |
