I think that good results have been achieved in the fight against COVID this year, and the pandemic is under full control.

Azerbaijan is one of the few countries where the situation in this area is acceptable.

APA reports that President Ilham Aliyev said this in his address on the occasion of the Solidarity Day of World Azerbaijanis and the New Year.

The head of state said: “At the same time, the large-scale vaccination policy and vaccination work are helping us.

About 50 percent of the population has already received two doses of vaccine.

As for the population over 18 years of age, this figure reaches 62 percent.

In total, more than 11 million doses of vaccine have been given, and we will seriously fight this scourge in the new year. "
