National vaccination progress
As of 2 Aug, Singapore has administered 7,703,746 doses of Covid-19 vaccines, covering 4,321,223 people, or 77% of the population.
3,505,975, or 63%, have received 2 doses, hence completing the full vaccination regimen.
Meanwhile, 108,815 doses of Sinovac vaccines have been administered so far to 75,856 people.
Goal: Have two-thirds of population fully vaccinated by 9 Aug
With a vaccination rate of 63% so far, Singapore is on track to have two-thirds of the population, or around 66%, fully vaccinated by National Day.
Once we’ve achieved this, we can look forward to a reopening that allows greater freedom to those who have received 2 doses.
Getting to work out at the gym and dine in again are just some of the ‘benefits’ to anticipate. We hope eligible individuals who have yet to book appointments for their second jabs would do so ASAP.
