As of 4 June, more than 2 billion doses of vaccine have been administered, which is equivalent to 26 per cent of the world’s population.
It’s very uneven. In sub-saharan Africa the highest rate is around three per cent in Botswana.
Australia currently ranks number 81 in the world for first doses.
Mongolia has the highest rate of vaccination in Asia. It also has one of the highest rates of infection.
Otherwise there’s a disconnect.
So based on need, the vaccine rollout needs to focus on countries like India and the rest of South Asia and South America.
This is part of the Know-C19 Hub two-volume COVID-19 Global Update edition, which analyses the situation from 1 – 31 May 2021.
