It is clear in the paper that the authors are aware that the data is rife with misinterpretation. They seem to make mention, and allude, to it a number of times. My interpretation of your post is that the spread of COVID19 is largely being driven by vaccinated individuals in the age range of 40-49. Am I correct?

Interpretation of data

These data should be considered in the context of vaccination status of the population groups
shown in the rest of this report. The vaccination status of cases, inpatients and deaths is not the
most appropriate method to assess vaccine effectiveness and there is a high risk of
misinterpretation. Vaccine effectiveness has been formally estimated from a number of different
sources and is described earlier in this report.
