You assume that it will, but this assumption is based on events prior to when we had the vaccines.
I only copied and pasted Jenny Harries’ name because I’d forgotten what it was! I do not copy and paste other articles as some others do without an appropriate acknowledgement.
By the way, you can relax a bit on the hospital admissions front. About a quarter of those patients were not admitted for Covid at all - they were admitted for other reasons, and at some point just happened to be tested and came out positive. They probably acquired it in hospital anyway!
Damned statistics, eh, jfman!

Hospitalisation figures do not paint full picture, with as many as a quarter of those listed having been admitted for another reason
At a press conference from Downing Street on Wednesday evening, Dr Jenny Harries, the chief executive of the UK Health Security Agency, took the public through slides showing that there were currently 7,891 people in hospital with Covid in the UK.
What she failed to mention is that this figure does not only include people admitted with Covid, but also those who test positive for coronavirus while in hospital for another condition.
Hospitals were instructed to distinguish between the two groups earlier this year, but so far it has not filtered down into the official figures.
