50,000 islanders have now had at least one Covid-19 vaccine.

More than 27,000 people have received both doses.

Latest stats supplied by Jersey's government show 49,413 had had a first dose up to Sunday 18 April.  Since then, the 50,000 mark will have been exceeded.  

Updated data will be published on Monday.

A total of 77,185 injections have been given.  That is an average of 71.6 doses per 100 people.

95% of over 80s have been fully vaccinated, along with 87% of 75 to 79 year olds and three quarters of other over 70s.

Almost half of all 40-49 year olds  - the current cohort being invited to book an appointment - have had a first injection.
