79.01 percent of the target population over 12 years of age in the Canary Islands has received the full vaccination schedule, a percentage that represents 1,549,753 immunized islanders.

For their part, the Nursing teams of the Canarian Health Service (SCS) have administered a total of 3,013,120 doses of vaccines, as reported by the Ministry of Health.

In the Archipelago, 83.14 percent of the target population (those over 12 years of age) is already vaccinated against Covid-19, since there are already 1,630,163 people who have received at least one dose of the vaccine. This means that 87.13 percent of those over 16 years of age (which was the target population when the campaign began) have at least one dose.

In addition, as of this Thursday, it had been possible to immunize 1,549,753 people who have already received the full vaccination schedule, which represents 79.01 percent of the archipelago's target population. If the initial target population (those over 16 years of age) in the Canary Islands is taken as a reference, 82.80 percent are already immunized.

By groups, from 1 to 7 (residents and health and social health personnel in residences; health personnel; large dependents and main caregivers; vulnerable people; groups with essential functions such as teachers and police officers and people with very high risk conditions) are already vaccinated with two doses between 99.5 and 100%.
