2. What's happening so far?
Of 7,826 adults in hospital because of #COVID19:
- 5,731 (73%) = unvaccinated
- 321 (4%) = partially vaccinated (this = lower than fully vaccinated as there are far fewer partially than fully vaxxed people in total)
- 1,774 (22.6%) = fully vaxxed

- 1,774 (22.6%) = fully vaxxed
3. What % of adults (18+) have been fully + partially vaccinated?
1. Fully vaccinated: 40.14% (if 2020 Stats SA population estimates = used)
2. Partially vaccinated (1 shot of #Pfizer only): 7.7% (12,367,221 [1st shots] - 9,289,091 [2nd shots] = 3,078,130 [1st shot only])

2. Partially vaccinated (1 shot of #Pfizer only): 7.7% (12,367,221 [1st shots] - 9,289,091 [2nd shots] = 3,078,130 [1st shot only])
4. The new dashboard page will break hospitalisations down into severity of admission, so the dashboard will indicate who, in each of the patient categories, have been admitted to:
1. A general #COVID19 ward
2. A high care COVID19 unit
3. A COVID19 intensive care unit
1. A general #COVID19 ward
2. A high care COVID19 unit
3. A COVID19 intensive care unit
5. What's happening so far?
Of 661 ICU admissions:
- 396 (60%) = unvaccinated
- 37 (5.6%) = partially vaccinated (1 shot of #Pfizer)
- 228 (34.5%) = fully vaccinated
Of 661 ICU admissions:
- 396 (60%) = unvaccinated
- 37 (5.6%) = partially vaccinated (1 shot of #Pfizer)
- 228 (34.5%) = fully vaccinated
6. The dashboard will have tables that categorise hospitalisations according 2 vaccination status + sex:
1. Red = unvaccinated; orange = partially vaccinated; green = fully vaccinated
2. Left graph = women; right graph = men
3. More women than men have been admitted to hospital
1. Red = unvaccinated; orange = partially vaccinated; green = fully vaccinated
2. Left graph = women; right graph = men
3. More women than men have been admitted to hospital
7. Vaccinations will also be categorised according to vaccination status and age:
1. The (left) graph shows, as expected, by far the most hospitalisations are among people for 60+
2. In the 60+ age group, 64% (2047/3200) of hospital admissions = unvaccinated

8. There will also be visual representations of hospitalisations, broken down into vaccination status and type of admission:
The graphs show that, for serious disease (high care/ICU), we have roughly double the number of admissions among unvaccinated vs. vaccinated people
