NHS England confirms that a COVID-19 patient is any patient admitted who has recently tested positive following a PCR or LFD. The charts in this thread misrepresent these patients as being covid hospitalisation and don’t recognise the incidental nature of the infection. https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/04/Publication-definitions-Apr22.pdf https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/covid-19-hospital-activity/

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
