Third dose of corona vaccine will also be given, announced in 9 countries including Germany

Those who may have more symptoms of corona, will be given a third booster dose of corona tick. Germany announced this on Monday. But Germany is not the first. Germany is the ninth country to declare a third dose for the population. This decision is due to concerns about the delta version.

Israel has already started giving boosters to people aged 60 and over. Germany and the UK will also start the third dose from September. Germany will give a booster dose to Pfizer or Moderna. But while many people around the world have not yet received the first dose, many are criticizing the three doses.

So far 4.5 billion doses of corona vaccine have been distributed worldwide. A small portion of this still goes to low-income countries. For example, the United States is the third most populous country in the world. There is or is adequate vaccination for 60% of the total population. Meanwhile, Indonesia has the fourth largest population. Vaccination has reached only 26% of the total population. (source: UNICEF)

According to an update from the UNICEF dashboard, about 3% went to the Middle East and North Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa went up 1.2%.
