According to the Ministry’s Facebook page, 375,640 adults have received a first dose of one of the various COVID vaccines on offer and 235,081 of these persons have received a second dose. Since vaccination of adolescents began, 26,683 of them have received a first dose and 16,991 of them have received a second dose. This gives a grand total of 654,395.
