Coronavirus spreads. But don't panic! (topical thread)

[SYZ]

This graphical info illustrates just how far behind our vaccination targets Australia is.
With 21 million adults (18+years) eligible to be vaccinated, 3.7 million thus far is
worrying—to say the least.    And that's over a 3-month period FFS.     



As of 24 May, the percentage of people vaccinated by population, by country:

Chile = 90.62
UK = 89.81
Mongolia = 81.26

USA = 85.78
Uruguay = 74.56
Iceland = 67.72

Canada = 56.38
Germany = 54.19
Denmark = 52.72

Italy = 51.88
Norway = 44.08
Greenland = 34.92

Australia = 14.17
India = 14.07
New Zealand = 9.84

—We may be fortunate to have avoided the major infection numbers of
most other countries, but everybody from both sides of the political divide
have lately accused our centre-right government of totally fucking up the
AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccine purchases and their rollout.  

The government's promotional ads in the media have been too little and too
late—a lot of fear and doubts have been allowed to fester in the minds of
conspiracy theorists, anti-vaxxers, and a medically under-educated public.
