We are into another "wave" of covid here in NZ.
The graph below shows the relative numbers of people in each covid vaccine group, hospitalised with Covid in the week Nov 14 - 20 2023
The numbers written on the colour blocks show the number of people per 100,000 of each vaccination group.
This is the most honest way of presenting statistics because it negates the confounding variable of the differing sizes of each group.
Critics have been claiming that the seeming over representation of the boosted, is due to the age skew of boosted being elderly and more at risk.
However, the Boosted category in NZ includes anyone who has had 3 doses of covid vaccine - and there are 2.77 million people of all ages from 18 up, in this "boosted" category.
Irrespective of age of the boosted...the entire premise of being boosted is to PREVENT hospitalisation and death...isn't it?
