Hospitalisations

Public Health England also publish a weekly surveillance report looks at the impact on hospitalisations, infection, vaccine effectiveness and mortality, which may be of interest: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1019992/Vaccine_surveillance_report_-_week_38.pdf
Adverse reactions to vaccination not resulting in fatality
The Medicines and Healthcare Regulatory Authority publish the Yellow Card Scheme, which records self-reported adverse reactions to vaccinations. For further information on the Yellow Card scheme, please contact the MHRA at info@mhra.gov.uk

Vaccination status of new COVID-19 cases
The COVID-19 infection survey (CIS) is a household survey which refers to the number of current COVID-19 infections within the community population; community in this instance refers to private residential households and it excludes those in hospitals, care homes or other institutional settings.
You can find the number of people with a new positive infection after vaccination on tab 1a in the dataset accompanying our technical article on positivity after vaccination.
