Ninety-nine percent of Yemenis are unvaccinated against COVID-19, Oxfam said Wednesday, as the region’s poorest country battles a third wave of the virus.
Less than 1% of Yemen’s population of 30.5 million has received one dose of the vaccine and just 0.05% is fully vaccinated, the aid agency said.
