Finally, something positive in a wave of negative news! Would be cool to see if somehow you can introduce some components of the https://www.worldometers.info/co... -- in the list, such as a statistic of vaccinations per million inhabitants and maybe graphs in a later stage :) gives a more in-depth perspective. Either way great concept!
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@nicolaas_spijker Thank you Nicolaas πŸ™ Totally agree with you. Some light in all of this situation. We will look on what you shared and will update. Appreciate your feedback :)
Alejandro Cantarero
Do you have the amount of vaccine doses each country has received? That could be an interesting extra data point. Especially since we know some places have been very slow in distributing. You might see other countries topping the list in terms of efficiency in distribution vs total % of population vaccinated.

@alejandro_cantarero1 I think it's hard to measure because if I take the example of my country, France, for example. Even though the government is a bit slow to deliver, if the numbers are not increasing fast it's mostly because a lot of us plainly refuse to be vaccinated
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@alejandro_cantarero1 @soueuls Hey guys we added those metric, please give it a look πŸ‘€ Will be happy to hear your thoughts! you can see it per each country (not include the US yet) here an example: https://vacs.live/countries/israel
Abdelilah Hicham
Awesome ! But how come Africa is empty ? I know that a few countries started administrating the vaccines there with the help of China, a couple of weeks before the EU & the US.
Swann Polydor
@abdelilah_hicham1 Lack of open data maybe?

Hey Everyone πŸ‘‹ @ori_riechman and I are the creators of https://covid-19-vaccine.live. The global mission to administer COVID vaccines is finally bearing fruits! A handful of vaccines have now been authorized all over the world and countries have begun vaccinating their populations. We decided to make the data more accessible with a simple dashboard that updates every hour - showing what percentage of each country has received the vaccine. So yeah, that's it! I hope you enjoy the Live Dashboard πŸ˜€ Needless to say, we're super excited to be on Product Hunt today! My co-founders Ori (@ori_riechman) and I will be around all day to listen to any ideas and feedback you might have. Thanks!
Jonathan Haim Fishner
Hey y'all! Thanks for all the support!!! πŸŽ‰ To help spread the word just bought another domain that we think it will make it easier to share. (https://vacs.live) LMK wdyt please :)
Thomas Schierenbeck
great site! the key question I have when looking at your site is how do you account for 1st vs. 2nd dose?
Thomas Schierenbeck
this is less relevant in the first days of the national vaccination campaigns, but will soon become important: some countries may unusual sequencing approaches, and if you have country A with 11% of the population having received dose 1 and 7% having received dose 2, then that country has a very different level of protection from country B where 11% have received dose 1, but 0% dose 2.
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@thomas_schierenbeck Woohoo! First of all, thank you so much. πŸ™Œ And about the question. Its a great question, we sharing currently what "ourworldindata.org" are sharing. "Total number of vaccination doses administered per 100 people in the total population. This is counted as a single dose, and may not equal the total number of people vaccinated, depending on the specific dose regime (e.g. people receive multiple doses)." Currently we does not support a breakdown for 1st vs 2nd dose, but looking forward to add it as fast as possible.
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@thomas_schierenbeck Totally agree about it.
Elad Nava
Nice and simple. Helps us understand the current vaccine distribution efforts with ease, while instilling hope in us all for the fight against COVID. I'll be using this more often than I expect in the coming months. Well done, and thanks for making this!
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@eladnava Thank you Elad! :D
Oren Sultan
more data I would love to see: 1. how many people were vaccinated per vaccine type(Moderna / Pfizer / Oxford/ Chinese/ Russian) 2. How many vaccines each country has purchased 3. How many vaccines were administered per age range in the population.
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@oren_sultan Totally helpful! We will take it and update asap Appreciate the valuable feedback πŸ’™
Geert Jan Sloos
Great! maybe make more stats like Vaccines today?
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@payrequest Thanks Geert! Yes, we will try to improve it and add more granular data over time. Appreciate your feedback πŸ™
Jimmy Cerone
Not sure you can share but I'm so curious - where do you get your data? Also, what tech stack did you use for this??
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@jimmy_cerone Hey Jimmy! Yea sure, you can find all the sources on the about page here - http://covid-19-vaccine.live/about We will add more sources in the near future as well. The stack is React.js + Ruby Serverless lambda + 2 cron jobs that updating the data every hour and that's all πŸ™‚
Jimmy Cerone
@jimmy_cerone @jonathan_haim_fishner Awesome! Just curious as I'm new to cloud tech, does serverless lambda refer to a AWS service?
Rahul Sethuram
@jimmy_cerone @jonathan_haim_fishner Lambda is AWS's implementation of "serverless functions". Most cloud providers offer something like this. The idea is you don't manage servers or any type of compute resources. You essentially "upload your code" then it runs on-demand in response to a configurable event such as an HTTP request, timer (cron), database insertion, etc. If you run code through Lambdas it basically scales infinitely and you never have to worry about it or touch it again.
Jimmy Cerone
@jimmy_cerone @jonathan_haim_fishner @rhlsthrm Wow. That is dope and the best explanation of that I've heard... Could be a blog post!
Rahul Sethuram
@jimmy_cerone @jonathan_haim_fishner @rhlsthrm thanks a bunch! I love Lambdas and use them whenever I have an opportunity! Will think about a blog post :).
Nate Watkin
Great idea, thanks for creating. Also cool to see the US leading the world in # of vaccinations.
Jonathan Haim Fishner
@assembletv Thank you Nate! We added a page for US only, with a breakdown for each state as well take a look - https://vacs.live/usa Also some buttons in the menu for easy way to share it! :)
