UAE reports 2,988 Covid cases, 3,658 recoveries
The UAE Ministry of Health and Prevention on Wednesday reported 2,988 cases of the Covid-19 coronavirus, along with 3,658 recoveries.
Close to 22 million Covid-19 tests have been carried out in the UAE so far.
The UAE is now second after Israel when it comes to vaccine administration rates, according to Our World in Data, a website that tracks vaccination rates run by researchers at the University of Oxford.
The data updated on January 5 shows that the UAE has administered 8.35 doses per 100 people.
A massive campaign is underway across the seven emirates, with vaccines available at public and private hospitals, health centres and even a community association in Ajman.
Plans are afoot to vaccinate 50 per cent of the population by the end of March.
Meanwhile, Abu Dhabi-based healthcare facility G42 Healthcare on Wednesday announced that it has identified the 'genomic source' of the Covid-19 pandemic in a successful study.
