Data for vaccinations? 9 comments
1/ Israel is leading in vaccination rates, with over 2mil @pfizer doses so far. Israeli MoH reached secret agreements with Pfizer.
2/ The deal? Isr. pays a lot ($$ not disclosed, but said to be $30 per shot), and pays in data.

3/ Following NGO demands, including @PrivacyIsrael (proud co-founder!), the data agreement was published today, with some retractions
See here: https://govextra.gov.il/media/30806/11221-moh-pfizer-collaboration-agreement-redacted.pdf

4/ some interesting sections there, e.g.:

5/ As for data, appendix A lists the data to be transferred:

6/ Mostly - indeed, aggregate, statistical data one can find on the MoH's website, but, some more obscure language - i'd love to see @IsraelMOH explain:
"Additional subgroup analyses and vaccine effectiveness analyses, as agreed by the Parties"

7/ One cannot wonder: if all the data is aggregate, statistical, and published anyway, why did they bother?

8/ Missing info: Applying appropriate privacy measures. I'd expect more details about the informational process: who aggregates the data? who deidentifies it, if so? who has access to what?

9/ Missing: procedural safeguards - such a project must have a dedicated CPO, or at the least, the Israeli DPA.

10/ Bottom line:
vaccinations are crucial;
data about actual result - highly important;
transparency - reasonable;
privacy measures - seem reasonable
