Day 553
In South Africa 4,6% of the population are fully vaccinated and 9,8% have had at least 1 dose. The numbers for the country as a whole for yesterday has not been updated in the Johns Hopkins database yet, so we look at some of the individual provinces instead.
In the Western Cape cases are still rising.
In KwaZulu-Natal cases and deaths are rising.
In Gauteng, cases are still falling sharply.
Let’s look at the top 10 lists for yesterday.
In Western Europe, cases look like it might have peaked now but deaths are still very slowly trending up. In the EU 48,2% of the population are fully vaccinated and 58,3% have had at least 1 dose. The EU and Western Europe are not the same but there is a large overlap between them so I think it is useful to quote EU vaccinations to provide context for this graph.
