According to the report prepared by Bloomberg Agency, based on periodic data for countries that lead vaccination campaigns.

The average daily number of doses is currently 33.8 million, compared to 5 million doses at the end of last December.

It stated that sufficient doses have been given to fully vaccinate 37.5 percent of the world’s population, “but the distribution is unbalanced.

Higher-income countries and regions are vaccinated 20 times faster than lower-income countries and regions.”

Globally, the current vaccination rate is 33.6 million doses per day.

“At this rate, it will take another six months to cover 75 percent of the population,” according to the agency.
