The vaccination campaign in Austria continues to make slow progress. Although experts warn that the fourth wave is getting out of hand, only 20,092 vaccinations were carried out on Thursday. In early June, more than 143,000 people were still vaccinated on the peak day. In total, 5,473,749 people have already received at least a partial vaccination, according to E-vaccine passport data: That’s 61.3 percent of the population. Meanwhile, exactly 5,169,410, or 57.9 percent of Austrians, are fully immunized.
Full immunization, which experts say protects against a severe course of the disease, has been received by 66.1 percent of the population in Burgenland, followed by Lower Austria (60.9 percent), Styria (58.7 percent), Vorarlberg (57.5 percent), Tyrol (56.5 percent), Vienna (55.9 percent), Salzburg (54.5) and Carinthia (54.1 percent). Upper Austria continues to bring up the rear with 53.4 percent of full immunizations.
