Staying with the vaccination theme briefly, I see Singapore now have 81% of 12-39 year olds fully vaccinated, with a further 8% having had their first dose (all effectively either Pfizer or Moderna).

DS248:
Briefly changing the subject!
Israel has now given 3rd doses to well over 60% of people 70 and older, and over 50% of the 60-69 age group (& now increasingly giving 3rd doses to the 50-59 group).
Will be interesting to see how this impacts the numbers of seriously ill patients and deaths, the former now approaching the Sep-Oct 20 peak (and ~half the Jan 21 peak).
Daily case numbers now exceed all but those during the Jan-early Feb 21 peak. On present trends even that could well be exceeded soon (8646+new cases yesterday, which is the 9th largest daily total since the start of the pandemic).
The world seems to have a strange fixation with Israel and Covid case numbers, but the reality is their rollout has all but stalled with a significant percentage of the population who are simply unwilling to be vaccinated. Once they hit high 50's of the total population vully vaccinated in April things have basically gone nowhere.
