As of Tuesday, June 29, 2021, Saint Lucia records the administration of 30,815 first doses, and 21,956 second doses of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 Vaccine. The highest uptake of the vaccine is noted amongst the over 50 years age group, followed by those 25 to 49 years, and then those 18 to 24 years. Typically, young adults are less clinically affected by COVID-19 infection, and as such they may see limited value in getting vaccinated. According to data from the Ministry of Health, the highest number of cases has been noted in the under 50 years age group. In light of this, the Ministry of Health and Wellness will remain steadfast in its efforts to educate and communicate the importance of vaccines to enable people in making the choice to get vaccinated.
