Over 15,000 active cases. Also, four new deaths linked to Covid-19.

Only 8,820 vaccinations on Saturday
Against a severe course, the coronavirus vaccinations help, but the willingness to vaccinate in the population continues to decline. Only 8,820 vaccinations have been carried out on Saturday. In total, not even 100,000 stings were administered throughout Austria last week, but only exactly 95,089. For comparison: on the strongest vaccination day to date, June 2, there had been more than 143,000 in one day.
In total, according to the E-vaccine passport data, 5,488,676 people have already received at least a partial vaccination: That’s 61.4 percent of the population. 5,187,069, or 58.1 percent of Austrians, have already been fully immunized. The highest initial vaccination rate is in Burgenland, with 68.6 percent. In Lower Austria, 64.2 percent of the population is at least vaccinated, and in Styria, 61.6 percent. After Tyrol (60.6), Vienna (59.9), Vorarlberg (59.5), Carinthia (58) and Salzburg (57.8), Upper Austria brings up the rear with a first-time vaccination rate of 56.8 percent.
