A REPORT BY THE ECONOMIST INTELLIGENCE UNIT

Q1 global forecast 2021 Coronavirus vaccines: expect delays

The rollout of vaccines against the coronavirus (Covid-19) has started in developed countries, but mass immunisation will take time. The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) believes that the bulk of the adult population in advanced economies will have been vaccinated by mid-2022. For middle-income countries, this timeline will stretch to late 2022 or early 2023. For poorer economies, mass immunisation will take until 2024, if it happens at all.Production represents the main hurdle, as many countries have pre-ordered more doses than they need. The cost associated with mass immunisation and vaccine diplomacy will also play a key role. In this special report, the EIU takes a closer look at some of these major issues associated with vaccinating the globe against Covid-19.
