Until now, Israel had led the average vaccination rate of doses against the coronavirus; Chile has vaccinated more than 4 million people
With an average of 1.08 doses given daily per 100 inhabitants inoculated over the past seven days, on Tuesday, Chile became the country with the fastest COVID-19 vaccination rate in the world.
The results are reflected in the most recent data provided by Oxford University’s Our World in Data program. Chilean officials also disseminated the information.
“In today’s global ranking, Chile has the fastest vaccination rate in the world based on last week’s average,” Health Minister Enrique Paris announced to the press on Tuesday after receiving the information.
