Ethnicity: NHS Data

Grampian Population Ethnicity Data, 2021 – age 40+ only

More recent data is available from NHS Scotland, where (colour coded) ethnicity is recorded with a person’s CHI Number, by health board. In statistics on Covid-19 vaccine uptake, the population for each ethnicity was listed, but only for age 40+. It may be possible to get broader data, though as shown in the table below, a significant number of people are ‘ethnic group unknown.’
