With reference to the screenshot of the vaccination table



1. Can we lose the horizontal line below the table? I understand its intent as a 'footnote separator' but its appearance right below the table border confounds the intention.


2. Can the column heading S/P be replaced with SoaP because
- 'S/P' ambiguates for 'Status Post', and
- 'SoaP' more readily communicates that a value of 'S' will refer to Subjective and 'P' to Plan.


3. Is there a problem in the placeholder code which generates the footnote mark (number), but does not anymore prepend this number to the target text? The hyperref manual at http://www.tug.org/applications/hyperref/manual.html warns that the function hyperfootnotes "Makes the footnote marks into hyperlinks to the footnote text. Easily broken …"


4. CAVEAT misbehaviour of package 'hyperref' when it was not called last, as demonstrated by its inadvertent hyper-linkage of the superscript 1 (next to S/P) to actual *Page 1* of the PDF. This was fixed by resequencing 'hyperref' within the template so that it was loaded last. 

Short of figuring that out, I had been resorting to hide the box, by setting it to a point thickness of zero

        \usepackage[pdfborder={0 0 0}]{hyperref}

or to disable hyper footnoting:

        \usepackage[hyperfootnotes=false]{hyperref}
