training for local health centres and vaccination establishments to step up updating
COVID-19 vaccination data for local residents.

establishments, excluding ministries and sectors’ hospitals based in , had
verified more than 12 million vaccine doses (equivalent to 75.35%) while over
4.2 million others (24.65%) had not.

units have coordinated with public security divisions at different levels and
related agencies to verify and update the data on the national population
database and the national platform for COVID-19 management.
From now to the end of 2022, it will
continue asking vaccination establishments to review existing data on the management
platform and work with police to carry out verification, correction and
supplementation to ensure information accuracy on the national population
database.
By the end of September 5, Vietnam had administered more
than 257 million . It is now one of the
countries with the largest vaccination coverage as almost 100% of
people aged 12 and above have received the first or second doses, and 56% of
the population the third doses – doubling the global average, according to Deputy
Minister of Health Nguyen Thi Lien Huong./.
