Almost 10 million South Africans, a quarter of the adult population, have received at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine.

South Africa's vaccination rollout has reached another important milestone, with 25% of all adults – aged 18 and above – being at least partially vaccinated against Covid-19.The bulk of these vaccinations have been administered in the past two months, as part of a phased rollout which started in February. Initial supply constraints, the Beta variant's evasiveness, and regulatory issues kept vaccination numbers low until July.

South Africa's daily vaccination rate has continued to improve since the rollout was opened to all adults on 20 August. A million doses were administered in just four days – the quickest rate recorded since the rollout began – over the past week.
