90% of intensive care haven't had boosters...

[Woowoe]

Up to 90 per cent of intensive care Covid patients have not had boosters, says Boris Johnson

So is he also admitting 90% are double jabbed?

Whilst admitting that 10% are triple jabbed

Those darned figures

Has he actually provided a source for those figure yet?

Were those people admitted to intensive care because of Covid or because of something else?

This time next year the figures will probably say 90% in ICU haven't yet had booster 3.

He goes on as if everyone has had the chance to have a booster. I am in my late 40s and only had mine last week. DH only had his the weekend before and he is in his late 50s. Some areas were way behind others.

But my 19 year old son got his last week too as a walk-in once the queues died down.

We need clarity.

Does he really mean people who are double jabbed are making up 90% of the ICu admissions?
Also is this only the covid related admissions or any?

I’m trying my hardest but the way this has been presented is ostentatiously vague and open to interpretation.

It's massively open to interpretation and deliberately vague. It could mean 90% are unvaccinated (as they would also be unboostered).

Latest ICNAR data shows 48% unvaccinated.

For COVID admissions

'says Boris Johnson' says it all

@Northsoutheastwest76

Latest ICNAR data shows 48% unvaccinated.

So 52% of Covid admissions have been vaccinated, but just not boosted?!?

I want to know how many have had 2 jabs and how many have had 0 jabs. "Not been boostered" could mean anything.

@2022beesknees I think the data was just fir single and double vaccinated as data only went up to November I think

I like this chart

@vickyc90 interesting and what I expected. The 2 people I know who were hospitalized with Covid were both unvaccinated males.

Even if Mr Johnson's figure is correct, unfortunately it is not going to persuade anyone given his industrial scale lying.

A large proportion of younger people (u40) have only had a 3 week window in which to access boosters, so it's hardly surprising that most in ICU haven't even had the chance for a booster before ending up there.

I thought I was doing pretty well to get Covid roughly two weeks after the booster (mild cold, not the worst I've had this year so hopefully that's the booster effect and no ICU risk factors anyway)

Well as the decision to offer boosters was only made at the start of December, it can hardly be surprising that a great many people have not had it.
