Not flawed, produced by OTHERS IE the MEDICAL PROFESSION, and shouldn't matter whatever.

The Manchester study showed that those who were unwell enough to be admitted to hospital did have a higher chance of death within 30 days if this happened at a weekend.
But they point out the percentage rate was higher simply because it was calculated from a total number of admissions which was lower than during the week.
The authors say in effect there is a higher bar for admission at weekends.
IE they die at home instead.
