Note: some countries do not provide data on the number of people who have been partially or fully vaccinated.
The data is compiled from government sources by the Our World in Data project at Oxford University. ON vaccinated Individual refers to someone who has received at least one dose of a vaccine, and a fully vaccinated Person received all required doses of a vaccine. For the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine, a person who is “fully vaccinated” received two doses.
While vaccine doses remain relatively low around the world, most countries have focused their early vaccination efforts on priority groups such as the clinically at risk. People in their 60s, 70s and older; and frontline workers, such as doctors and nurses. Israel vaccinates its population faster than any other country, at 48.9 doses per 100 people.
Following the record breaking development of coronavirus vaccines, initial vaccination rates have become a controversial issue for many countries.
The European Union got off to a sluggish start to its vaccination campaign as regulatory approval for Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines lagged behind the US. Other problems further hampered early efforts: Spain had insufficiently trained nurses, while Italy, Greece and other countries faced needle shortages.
The European countries are currently well behind the United States and the United Kingdom. The UK gave 11.9 doses per 100 people while the Netherlands and France still gave two doses per 100 people.

There is also a notable divide between continents. Immunization programs in Africa have not yet started, while North America has already given 4.7 doses per 100 people. Less affluent countries are relying on a vaccine-sharing agreement called Covax, which is expected to provide two billion doses by the end of the year. Australia, which has had fewer than 1,000 coronavirus deaths, has approved the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine, but first doses are not expected until late February.

According to Our World in Data, eight different vaccines are used around the world. The Pfizer BioNTech vaccine, which is 95 percent effective in reducing coronavirus infections, is currently used in 49 countries. Several other countries have approved vaccines but have yet to start administering them.
All vaccines currently in use require two doses in order for a patient to be fully vaccinated. However, a one-time vaccine from pharmaceutical giant Johnson & Johnson is expected to be approved in the US within weeks.
