Thanks MadHatFx, I removed the link because you may have reached an older cached version of the map. EMRO is comprised of the Ministries of Health from Qatar, Dubai, Saudi, etc and they all report their numbers to the local WHO office on a regular basis. Please remember that their is a lag time and the report may be published weekly. They have also published their plan for the pandemic and you may understand and feel confident about the measures the authorities are taking after you read their full report. People have many questions regarding the vaccine, like whether it will be given in two injections spaced a few weeks apart and whether it is safe for a pregnant or nursing mother. The truth is that these vaccines were rushed through clinical trials out of necessity and there are known side effects and contraindications with any drug. As a patient and ultimate decision maker for your family, you will need to weigh the benefits versus the risk to your family and make an informed choice. Healthcare workers are being given the vaccine in many countries as this is written. I agree with Veena. One should be brave. One should also be well informed.
