The bit you're taking out of context: ** the explanation of that bit ***
The rate of a positive COVID-19 test varies by age and vaccination status. The rate of a positive
COVID-19 test is substantially lower in vaccinated individuals compared to unvaccinated
individuals up to the age of 29. In individuals aged greater than 30, **the rate of a positive
COVID-19 test is higher in vaccinated individuals compared to unvaccinated (Table 11). This is
likely to be due to a variety of reasons, including differences in the population of vaccinated and
unvaccinated people as well as differences in testing patterns.
The rate of hospitalisation within 28 days of a positive COVID-19 test increases with age, and is
substantially greater in unvaccinated individuals compared to vaccinated individuals.
The rate of death within 28 days or within 60 days of a positive COVID-19 test increases with
age, and again is substantially greater in unvaccinated individuals compared to fully vaccinated
individuals.
Interpretation of data
These data should be considered in the context of the vaccination status of the population
groups shown in the rest of this report. ***In the context of very high vaccine coverage in the
population, even with a highly effective vaccine, it is expected that a large proportion of cases,
hospitalisations and deaths would occur in vaccinated individuals, simply because a larger
proportion of the population are vaccinated than unvaccinated and no vaccine is 100% effective.
