France ahead of schedule to give 10m first Covid-19 vaccine doses
France will today pass the mark of delivering a first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine to 10 million people. The government had previously stated this milestone would be reached by April 15, meaning the country is one week ahead of schedule.
A total of 9,797,957 first doses have been delivered in France so far. Yesterday, 391,177 vaccinations were carried out (first and second doses), so it is expected that the 10 million mark will be reached today.
So far in April, 1,757,591 doses of a Covid-19 vaccination have been delivered.
