566,285 adults in Fiji have received their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and 300,039 have received their second doses.
Permanent Secretary for Health Dr James Fong says this means that 96.5% of the target population have received at least one dose and 51.1% are now fully vaccinated nationwide.
Dr Fong says they are currently doing a mop up exercise of their first dose campaign, which will allow them to specifically target communities with low coverage, and re-look at certain subdivisions that are generating coverage rates beyond 100%.
He adds this will allow them to correct and update the total eligible population for their current vaccination program.
