In new statistics shared by international newsroom The Guardian, Malta has ranked 3rd best in the world for total vaccinations administered per 100 people. Just behind Gibraltar and United Arab Emirates, Malta stands at a rate of 143.01 vaccinations per 100 people with 631,446 total vaccinations and 5,053 latest daily vaccinations (by the time of this article).
Gibraltar stands at 231.42 per 100 persons, with UAE at 147.94. Seychelles follows Malta at 140.0. Malta reached herd immunity on May 24th 2021 as 70% of the adult population received at least the first jab of the vaccine. The rollout is still ongoing globally, with Malta extending its programme to younger ages. Despite this, COVID-19 is still a persistent threat which requires the adherence to now easing health restrictions.
