Ireland: 54% of hospitalized Covid patients are fully vaccinated
About half of all Covid-19 patients in Irish hospitals and intensive care units are fully vaccinated against the disease, new figures show. One-sixth of deaths of people with the virus since April have been categorised as breakthrough infections of fully vaccinated patients, according to Health Service Executive data.
More than one-quarter of ICU admissions since July were also breakthrough infections of fully vaccinated people.
