510,000 Covid-19 vaccine doses administered in Qatar till now

Doha: Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) has announced that 510,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses have been administered since the start of the Covid-19 National Vaccination Program.

The Ministry stated that the recent availability of greater quantities of both the Moderna and Pfizer and BioNTech vaccines has helped increase the pace of the vaccination programme, with over 100,000 doses being administered each week, meaning that every day around 14,000 of our most vulnerable members of society and essential workers are getting vaccinated and becoming protected against Covid-19. Since the beginning of February, the number of doses administered each week has increased by 270 percent and more than one in seven adults, 15 percent of Qatar’s adult population, have now received at least one vaccine dose.
