Presented it crownedhboard Tuesday morning still put 3.1 million vaccines, the counter now stands at 3.9 million. This means that the vaccination rate has almost doubled and someone gets a shot every 0.5 seconds.
On the corona dashboard, the Ministry of Health presents the number of vaccinations taken, but this number had not been updated since Saturday. The figures are now up to date again.
There were two more factors that caused the count to lag behind the actual number of vaccines taken. The AstraZeneca vaccinations to 60-64 year olds were not counted for ten days while they were administered.
A spokesperson for the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport also said that the RIVM overestimated the waste of vaccines. Previous calculations assumed a waste of 5 percent, but retroactively that has been reduced to 1 percent.
The number of injections planned between 12 and 18 April is 757,719. This increases the rate from one injection per 0.9 second to one injection per 0.5 second.
