The UAE has reached an incredible milestone in its quest to vaccinate the population of the country against COVID-19.
It was announced on Saturday by the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP) that 103,469 had been vaccinated in the last 24 hours, taking the total amount of doses administered to five million.
This milestone in the vaccination process bodes well for the nation’s aim to vaccinate half of the population by the end of March and also showcases the UAE as one of the leaders in the world in vaccination rates.
At present, there are four COVID-19 vaccinations being administered in the UAE.
