Two-thirds of Covid ICU patients are unvaccinated

Infectious disease specialist Prof Sam McConkey said the number of people in hospital with the disease was 'very shocking and disappointing'.

Almost two-thirds of the patients with Covid-19 admitted into intensive care between June and October were not fully vaccinated, according to the latest data.

The Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC) published an analysis of the ICU admissions of Covid patients between June 27 and October 2.
