The Kingdom of Bhutan - wedged high in the Himalaya's between India and China and home to nearly 800,000 people – has been hailed by UNICEF as having the fastest vaccination response campaign during a pandemic. The comments by the UN agency comes after Bhutan’s health ministry revealed that more than 90% of the eligible adult population have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19 within just seven days.
