ACIP June Meeting, COVID vaccination discussion summaries

ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, part of the
CDC) just had one of their big 3-day meetings of the year (next
one is in October, and they're livestreamed to the public).
Quite a few interesting points on the COVID front, including:
how much the data glut is impacting assessment and forecasting
(which, duh); which age groups have the highest hospitalization
rates, and what percentage of each of those group has zero
co-morbidities (a key point I do not see being discussed outside
of COVID-conscious circles); who's getting vaccinated, who
isn't, and the reasons behind both; how often we should be
getting vaccinated vs reality, and why; and more. Patrick the
BioSTEAMist, bless him, summarized the relevant 3.5 hours of
meeting into two relatively short videos:
