[[[In the six months preceding late December, 1014 fully vaccinated people were admitted to hospital with Covid-19, making up 2.4 per cent of cases. There were 5579 unvaccinated people admitted to hospital suffering the disease, accounting for 12.4 per cent of total cases. Only 0.2 per cent of vaccinated people who caught the virus had to be admitted to ICU, compared with 2.5 per cent of unvaccinated people.That made unvaccinated people more than 12 times more likely to enter ICU with Covid-19 than those who were vaccinated.
NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet revealed on Friday that 50 per cent of the people in ICU with Covid-19 were unvaccinated.“Vaccination is key,” he said. “It has been the key to keeping people safe during this difficult time, and it is why here in NSW and right around the country we have one of the lowest death rates and hospitalisation rates anywhere in the world.
”Half of Victoria’s 112 patients in ICU with Covid-19 come from the 6 per cent of the Victorian population that is unvaccinated, and 60 per cent of the state’s recent Covid deaths were people aged 50 to 100 who had not been vaccinated, according to acting Health Minister James Merlino.]]]
