I'm not sure the data exists one way or the other to draw effective conclusions, becauseĀ
1. hospitalization (and death) data does not delineate between the vaccinated & unvaccinated. If you have a source for this delineation, please by all means share it!
2. whether the person is hospitalized FOR Covid or hospitalized WITH Covid (i.e., hospitalized for a diff reason but tested positive on the way in the door). Anecdotally I've heard that anywhere from 25% to 50% of "Covid hospitalizations" are for WITH Covid (i.e., indicental).
I think there's very little real data out there that is trustworthy, and first and foremost I blame our CDC for that.
