Around two thirds of all coronavirus patients currently hospitalised have no history of vaccination against Covid-19, health ministry data showed on Thursday.

The data on current hospitalisations was published as part of the ministry’s efforts “to enhance transparency and proper information of citizens”.

It said that 66 per cent of hospitalised coronavirus patients have no vaccination history, 20 per cent have received the booster shot, while vaccinated patients with two vaccine doses or the single-dose Janssen jab account for two per cent of hospitalisations.

Twelve per cent of patients only had one vaccine dose from a two-dose vaccine. The data does not include post-covid patients that are still treated at the hospitals.
