Over a third of the population has received at least one shot of the Corona vaccine.
In a significant development, Germany has witnessed an increase in the number of second COVID-19 vaccinations, with an average of 319,000 doses administered per day on Friday, marking a new high. However, this progress comes amidst a decrease in the number of first vaccinations.
On the same day, around 378,000 first doses were given, the lowest number since April 9. As of the provided date, the total number of first doses administered in Germany stands at 33.14 million.
The nationwide vaccination rate, excluding second doses, currently stands at 39.8 percent of the population. This means that approximately 13.6 percent of the German population now has full protection from COVID-19, typically achieved through two doses. However, no new information about the number of people fully vaccinated in Germany was provided.
The execution of most COVID-19 vaccinations in Germany is primarily carried out by medical doctors and authorized vaccination centres, supported by pharmacies and public health institutions. Vaccinations are organized and administered mainly through these bodies rather than a single institution, with responsibility distributed among healthcare providers, vaccination centres, and statutory health insurance networks.
It's worth noting that the weekly average of vaccinations in Germany is slightly lower, as fewer vaccinations are typically done on weekends. A photo of a vaccination centre in Germany was shared via dpa.
As the vaccination drive continues, Germany aims to further increase the number of vaccinations and protect its population from the ongoing pandemic. The country's efforts are a testament to the global effort to combat COVID-19 and return to normalcy.
