  • GOOD NEWS: UAE Becomes ‘World’s Most Vaccinated Country’The UAE has surpassed Seychelles as the world's most vaccinated country, according to Bloomberg's COVID-19 vaccine tracker. Since the start of the national vaccination effort in December, the UAE has administered 15.53 million doses of COVID -19 vaccine. UAE Leads the World with Most Number of Vaccinations Surpassing Seychelles This means that 156.76 doses have been allocated to every 100 people, the Gulf Today reported. The UAE leads the globe in vaccination coverage, having enough vaccines to cover 72.1 percent of its population.

According to UAE Health Minister Abdul Rahman Bin Mohammad Bin Nasser Al Owais, the latest worldwide achievement adds to the country's success and track record in combating the COVID-19 epidemic.
