They're two separate data points, he hasn't done this
He's stated separately that 92% of the country is vaccinated AND (separately) half of ICU admissions are from the unvaccinated, what it means is that that remaining 8% are responsible for more than half of the COVID hospitalisations
Considering how much of a surveillance state AUS has, they likely do have the data to draw these conclusions
It really does show how effective they are in also reducing the severity of the condition, which is a very important point to make

These are hypotheses, and professionals are needed to establish causality. This _is_ a nuanced issue, it's not simple (despite what almost everyone seems to think), and we should start ignoring simplistic sound bites on this topic.
