While some countries have begun to relax restrictions due to the ceasefire caused by the mass vaccine, others are fighting against the advancement of the delta variant, which is far more contagious than the original version of Govit-19.

According to Ever World’s data, 669,682 new corona virus infections were reported in the past day, bringing the total number of infections worldwide to more than 208 million. In addition, there are 4.37 million deaths, of which 9,464 were reported on August 17th.

According to the Immunization Campaign, 31.7% of the world’s population has received at least one dose of the anti – viral vaccine. A total of 4.76 billion doses are administered worldwide and approximately 37.05 million are used per day. However, in countries with limited resources, only 1.3% have received the vaccine.
