The mean (standard deviation) age was 62.6 (21.0) yr; 41.2% (n = 2,176) were female, and 48% (n = 2,539) required admission to an intensive care unit (ICU), of whom 60.3% (n = 1,530) underwent invasive mechanical ventilation. The proportion of vaccinated patients increased over time. The proportion of vaccinated hospitalized patients progressing to require ICU admission fell over pandemic waves while the proportion of unvaccinated hospitalized patients progressing to require ICU admission did not. Patients were most commonly treated with corticosteroids (48.7%; n = 2,575); use of corticosteroids and other evidence-based treatments increased over time. Hospital mortality was 22.1% (n = 1,166) among all patients, 30.2% (n = 766) among those admitted to an ICU, and 37.9% (n = 580) among those requiring invasive mechanical ventilation.
