Nearly 2.28 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been delivered in the region, and approximately 2.2 million have been recorded as administered. This number includes residents of the state as well as those who work in San Diego County.
Of those vaccinated so far, more than 745,000 residents of the province, or 27.7% of San Diegans 16 and older, have been fully vaccinated.
Overall, nearly 1.2 million residents of the province received at least one shot of the two-dose vaccine. This is 44.3% of those who are eligible.
Those who received the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which is currently being held in the province under the direction of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration, are being added to the total of the full vaccinated San Diegans.
