As it stands your request doesn't make a lot of sense. You can be admitted to hospital for a range of things from elective surgery on an ingrown toenail to a traumatic injury from a motor vehicle accident. Do you want all of those admissions?
The hospital is not going to be asking you whether you have had the jab in either case.
