“Conspicuous by one's absence” -> nghĩa là việc vắng mặt (tại sự kiện, cuộc họp, buổi tiệc...) dễ dàng bị nhận ra.

For a start the headline-grabbing efficacy (tính hiệu lực, hiệu quả) figure of 90% among patients who received a half-strength priming dose is still unexplained, with the researchers conceding that it is possible that chance might have played a part in this “intriguingly high” number. And data on older patients is still conspicuous by its absence – one of several holes that leave the jab’s chances of approval and labelling hard to judge. 

Like Shoeless Joe Jackson and Pete Rose, Barry had brought scandal to the game I’d fallen in love with as a boy and now led as baseball’s ninth commissioner. I wasn’t going to sing his praises, as I’d done for Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa when they smashed Roger Maris’s single-season homer record in 1998, but I didn’t want to be conspicuous by my absence, either. So in a stretch of sixteen days I watched Bonds and the San Francisco Giants play nine times. It was not one of the highlights of my life.

“What I would like to say to Randy Delorey is this,” said MacLeod: “What has your administration done to protect long-term care residents prior to the outbreak of the coronavirus? It has been brought to your attention on many occasions the elderly were not being properly cared for and the Department for the Protection for People in Care were obviously not doing their job. The ACE Team has revealed 400 cases of neglect and abuse, on average, annually, some declared homicides, leaving families without closure or any sense of justice. Had the issues of chronic understaffing and underfunding, that the ACE Team and other health advocate groups were calling to be addressed, actually been addressed, the death rate presently happening in Northwood could have been much lower… You have been conspicuous by your absence during the daily media scrums and am just wondering if you are self isolating.”
