They publish both admissions and numbers in hospital. It's currently:
Patients admitted 922
Patients in hospital 5,238
So on average people are staying in 5.6 days.

Infection provides some protection, but vaccination provides more. Infection+vaccination is better still.
Besides, the cost of testing for antibodies would exceed the cost of vaccinating regardless. And you'd still need to vaccinate all the people who tested negative for antibodies.
