According to the UAE health ministry, "a total of
21,802,032 doses" of COVID vaccine have been administered in the Gulf Arab
nation.
"One hundred percent (of the population) have received
one dose" while "90.18 percent are fully vaccinated".
The UAE — a federation of seven emirates — is home to around
10 million people, a majority of whom are expats.
The energy-rich Arab country was considered as far back as
July a leader in terms of population in inoculating people against
COVID.
In October, the UAE declared it had overcome the coronavirus
crisis after recording its lowest number of infections that month.
The UAE has so far recorded more than 741,000 cases of
COVID-19, including 2,145 deaths.
