As reported by El Pais, a total of 33.2 million people are completely immunized against Covid-19, a milestone no other country of comparative size has reached in such a short period of time.
Spain has reached the main objective that governments from all over the world had set to tackle the coronavirus pandemic: fully vaccinating 70% of its population. The country was due to have broken this barrier on Tuesday, although it will not appear in the daily report on the campaign until Wednesday, given that these data cover the previous day.
According to the available figures, Spain finished Monday with fewer than 200,000 people fully vaccinated left before it hit the target, while forecasts – based on the first doses administered in recent weeks and the speed of the campaign in the last few days – suggest that around 300,000 full doses will have been completed by Tuesday.
This is a total of 33.24 million citizens with the full protection offered by the vaccines being used in Spain.
