(Not hinting that any anti-vax notion is sensible, because I think anti-vaxers are barking mad and on the balance of risks it's far better for anyone, especially old timers, to have the jab vs not. But even though the old boy is 99 and could therefore conk out at any moment, the timing of his present indisposition does seem more than a coincidence)

It is also possible that he had an adverse reaction to the vaccine.

At age 99 he has a 1/3 chance of dying. So to become hospitalised is more likely than not.

I'm certain they (HMQ & hubby, and others in the royal household) had it only a couple of weeks ago when this was publicised.
