Global vaccination against Covid-19: which are the 50 most advanced countries

Considering the global advance of the coronavirus around the world, with the second wave in effect in many regions, one of the multilateral drawbacks is the vaccine shortage globally and the differences in distribution between the most and least developed countries. If the United States leads the world ranking for the number of people vaccinated, it is also one of the countries on the planet with the most positivity per 100,000 inhabitants.

A study conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO), in connection with the project Our world in data, shows the large differences in the distribution of compounds against Covid-19 and the number of people who have been immunized around the world.

Out of a total of 733,287,398 doses administered worldwide, the largest proportion is concentrated in only a few countries per region, generally the most economically developed.

The WHO Global Immunization Map shows that Americas region most advanced in delivering at least first dose of Covid-19 vaccine. Of course, the area with the most vaccines is North America, particularly with the United States at the top of the rankings. But in South America, the good results of Uruguay, Chile and, to a lesser extent, Argentina and Brazil also stand out.

However, it is also the area where the most cases have been recorded since the start of the pandemic. United States and Brazil These are the countries with the highest positivity rate in the region, but they are also those which inoculated the highest number of doses in the population.

According to statistics produced by Our World in Data, a project of the University of Oxford, Chile tops US list, third in the world, with a vaccination rate of 64.7 per 100,000 inhabitants, while Uruguay ranks 14th in the world, with 32.7.
