Europe took delivery of, and administered, nearly 17 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines last week, according to a regular monitoring report that showed that a total of 116 million shots had been given as the region’s campaign picks up.
A total of 134 million doses have been sent to countries in the European Union and European Economic Area, working out at 35.9 doses per 100 inhabitants, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) said.
The figures were contained in the ECDC’s weekly report, which was published on Thursday and covered the week ending last Sunday.
