I agree that vaccination, or rather problem vaccination, exists in countries with a very large population, where there are hundreds or more millions of people. Or where the population is spread evenly and over a large area. In such countries, the vaccination process is very extended in time and territory. But for countries with indicators of even several tens of millions, and more or less developed infrastructure, this is no longer such a global problem. For example, in Ukraine, over the past 2 months, we have made a strong breakthrough in vaccination, and already 13% have been vaccinated once, almost 9% completely. In the largest cities of the country (and this is about 80% of the country's population), a lot of vaccination centers have been opened, where there are 4 types of vaccines, and a free registration for vaccination. For example, here is a link to a single Ukrainian resource, in this case for the city of Kiev (https://helsi.me/clinic/926a56de-cc9f-4d32-a393-021cc1b3c194/doctors?mode=table), a simple example is an online platform and a chart (for the record) at one of the vaccination centers. The platform is the same for the whole of Ukraine, any citizen, in any accessible locality, can freely and free of charge sign up and receive vaccinations.

You are saying that 87% of the population is unvaccinated. This is the perfect recipe for disaster. The winter season will start in less than 2 months and if the pandemic is not contained before that it will spread like wildfire. And if I am not wrong, Ukraine has mostly used the Chinese vaccines. And these vaccines have proved to be very ineffective against the delta variant. The government needs to step up the vaccination rate. Here in India we are vaccinating close to 10 million people per day.

Yes, currently 13% are vaccinated, but:
1. This is a very big "leap" for the last 2-3 months, before that vaccination was going very badly
2. In recent months, a global vaccination program has been organized - vaccination is available in all major cities, in many centers, clinics, free of charge, and with any vaccine.
3. In Ukraine, a significant stock of vaccine has been created, in addition to Koronovac, large stocks of Pfizer, Modern, Astrazenek
4. The level of confidence in vaccination has begun to rise

So there is a chance to "catch up" with countries with higher vaccination rates

PS. I look at open sources, in India the indicator also leaves much to be desired (about 11% are fully vaccinated), although your scale is certainly incomparably larger ...
