  • "We've done almost double the percentage [of boosters] of any other European country" During Prime Minister’s Questions, Boris Johnson said that the percentage of the UK population who have received a booster vaccine was double that of any other European country. This is not true. It appears the Prime Minister may have meant to refer to the European Union average. Later that day, he said that “the UK as a whole now has twice as many boosters per head as the EU”. This is correct. When Mr Johnson was speaking at PMQs, the latest figures available on Our World in Data, covering 12-14 December, showed that Iceland had boosted more of its population (54%) than the UK (35%). Even if you disregard Iceland on the basis of its much smaller population, the UK’s booster coverage is only just ahead of the rates in Austria (33%) or Hungary (31%), not double. By comparison, across the EU as a whole, 19% of people had received a booster vaccine, just above half the level in the UK. So the UK’s booster rollout is certainly very well advanced in comparison to many European countries, but not to the extent the Prime Minister originally claimed.
