Tracking Progress

The following figures and tables track progress on the proposed actions and targets set by IMF Staff Discussion Note – A Proposal to End the COVID-19 Pandemic.


1. Where Does the World Stand in Terms of Pre-Purchases of Vaccines? Almost There, but Targeted Actions Needed

SECURED VACCINES AND/OR EXPECTED VACCINE SUPPLY (DOSES, % OF TOTAL POPULATION)

2. 86 Countries Did Not Meet the 40% Target by End-2021

FULLY VACCINATED COVERAGE AT END-2021 (% OF TOTAL POPULATION)

3. The 70% Vaccination Target: About 61% of the World Received 2+ Doses, but About 130 Countries Missed the Target By Mid-2022

SHARE OF PEOPLE VACCINATED (2 OR MORE DOSES OF THE COVID-19 VACCINE, % of TOTAL POPULATION)

4. Despite COVAX offering vaccines to AMC countries, deliveries remain unequal in part due to in country delivery challenges

Notes: The list includes 88 AMC91 countries who have been allocated doses from COVAX. Two countries are not vaccinating, and the Marshall Islands is covered through other mechanisms. Owing to its size, India has a reduced access as per the December 2020 Board decision. A course equals one dose of J&J or two doses of all other vaccines for comparability. The AMC equal delivery calculation represents the coverage the AMC countries would have received if the total AMC doses were delivered equally across the countries (that is total courses delivered divided by population of the AMC countries represented here).

5. Ensure all countries have equitable access to a comprehensive toolkit to handle all future scenarios

6. Where Does the World Stand in Terms of Closing the Financing Gaps?

7. COVID-19 cases are surging in various parts of the world due to Omicron

Ratio of Current Cases to 2020 Peak
