An encouraging update on the progress of vaccinations worldwide, as reported in 'The Telegraph' today:
"The UK has joined a handful of countries to have fully vaccinated more than two-thirds of its entire population against Covid-19.
"More than 44.7 million second doses have now been delivered in the UK, according to Government figures – the equivalent of just over 66.6 per cent of the total population.
"Other countries to have already passed this figure include Canada (with at least 70 per cent of people fully vaccinated), Chile (73 per cent) and Singapore (76 per cent).
"A number of European nations have also beaten the UK to the milestone of two-thirds fully jabbed, such as Italy (67 per cent), Belgium (71 per cent), Ireland (73 per cent) and Spain (77 per cent).
"Portugal continues to lead the world, however, with at least 84 per cent of its total population having now received two doses of the vaccine."
