The world’s first Corona 19 vaccine booster shot, Israel’s cumulative number of vaccines, which started the third dose, has exceeded 3 million.

Israel’s Ministry of Health said on the 17th local time that the number of booster shots had exceeded 3 million, local media reported.

The total population of Israel is about 9.3 million, which means that one in three people has received the third dose.

Israel started the world’s first third dose of vaccination in July for people whose immunity has been compromised following immunosuppressive treatment after organ transplant surgery.

Since then, the target of the third dose has been gradually expanded, expanding the range of people over 12 years of age who can receive the Pfizer vaccine.
