In total, 6,777,771 inhabitants of the island have already received the three doses included in the national immunization program, a figure that includes those convalescing from the disease, to whom an injection of the Soberana Plus vaccine is administered.

The above number represents 69.2 percent of people without any health problem and with all the possibilities to receive the Cuban drugs Soberana 02, Soberana Plus or Abdala.

At least 9,713,978 Cubans received the first dose (86.8 percent of the entire population of the country and 99.2 percent of those eligible for vaccination), according to the data presented by the Director of Epidemiology of Minsap, Francisco Durán.
