Globally, nearly as many vaccine shots have been given in seven weeks as the all-time number of people who got infected with the virus.
Both numbers stand at around 104 million as of Thursday morning. However, this does not mean that as many people have been fully vaccinated, as all vaccines in use currently need multiple doses.Israel has fully vaccinated over 21% of its population, numbers from Our World in Data show.
The share is 2.5% in the UAE and 1.8% in the US. India’s share is not yet clear, as the country releases numbers for doses, not people vaccinated.Meanwhile, India’s covid-19 case count continues to show sharp improvement.
