More than 100 million Covid-19 vaccine doses have been administered worldwide, APA reports citing Bloomberg.

It’s a significant milestone that comes just two months after the first vaccine studies were submitted for regulatory review.

In total, more than 101 million doses have been given in 64 countries around the world. The pace of vaccinations continues to increase, with the latest average rate at roughly 4.25 million doses a day, according to data collected by Bloomberg.

In the U.S., more Americans have now received at least one dose than have tested positive for the virus since the pandemic began. Some 32.8 million doses have been given, most recently at an average rate of 1.34 million doses per day.
