The UAE has embarked on a major vaccination drive in recent weeks as it steps up its fight to overcome the pandemic.
The Sinopharm vaccine was introduced across the Emirates on December 9, with the Pfizer-BioNTech shot approved for use in Dubai two weeks later in a phased rollout which involves priority being given to key groups such as the over 60s and frontline workers.
Dedicated vaccine centres were set up in Abu Dhabi and Dubai in support of the nationwide push.
A further 95,783 vaccine doses were administered across the country on Wednesday, raising the total to more than 2.1 million to date.
This equates to a vaccination distribution rate of 21.85 doses per 100 people.
