We said

Thank you for your enquiry.

Unfortunately, we do not hold the requested information for COVID-19 hospitalisations by vaccination status in the UK. To fulfil this request, we would need to create bespoke analysis involving complex data linkage. Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, Public Authorities are not obligated to create information in order to respond to requests. Therefore, we do not hold this information.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) would be better placed to answer your enquiry. They publish a weekly surveillance report which looks at the impact on hospitalisations, infection, vaccine effectiveness and mortality. They can be contacted on InformationRights@UKHSA.gov.uk
