UAE leads the world by hitting 15 million vaccine doses


The UAE’s National Vaccination Programme scales a new milestone of administering 15 million doses and keeping the top rank in the vaccine distribution rate globally.

On Saturday, authorities announced that as many as 103,196 vaccine doses were given in the last 24 hours to reach an overall 15.04 million doses at a distribution rate of 152.10 doses per 100 people.


The achievement assumes greater significance as it comes on a week when the WHO’s Covid-19 epidemiological update revealed the Delta variant – a more transmissible strain of Covid-19 – being reported in 85 countries worldwide, including GCC countries barring the UAE.
