As of July 4, 50.53% of the people currently hospitalized with COVID in Alberta have received three doses of the COVID vaccine.
According to Alberta’s most up-to-date vaccine outcomes COVID statistics, there are 568 people currently hospitalized with COVID-19: 287 (50.53%) have received a booster, 154 (27.11%) have received two doses; 18 (3.17%) have received one dose, and 109 (19.19) have received no doses and remain unvaccinated.
The vast majority of those hospitalized over the last 120 days are above the age of 60, and the per capita hospitalization rate remains significantly higher for the 60+ unvaccinated category.
Based on the data provided, the 60-69-year-old category has a 150.15 hospitalization rate per 100,000 if boosted compared to a 304.07 per capita rate if fully vaccinated and a 1306.5 per capita hospitalization rate if unvaccinated (does not specify if this table includes those with one dose).
The apparent vaccine efficacy wanes significantly in the 80+ category, with the boosted having a 1472.89 per capita hospitalization rate, the fully vaccinated having a 1981.16 per capita hospitalization rate, and the unvaccinated having a 4343.3 per capita hospitalization rate (does not specify if this table includes those with one dose).
In the younger categories, the number of hospitalizations is negligible compared to the elderly, regardless of vaccination status — though here, too, the unvaccinated have a slightly higher per capita hospitalization rate than other categories in this data set.
