332,915,073 million in US population vs 25,890,087 million Aus no comparison.

We will not be out of lockdown until they open up the retail sector until then your living in a dream world

Traditionally a country of sheep, I am not surprised

9NewsMelb Australia always has been the country that relies on its sheep farming...

Um..... We should have overtaken them months ago as the US have x1000 more people than Australia.... But hey.... Well done a country of 24 million beat a country like the US that have 100s of millions 🤣 and they been living freely for the good part of 12 months ... Nice try 🤣

JoeBiden take that, America!

Great achievement to the Australian government to hit the 70% vaccination rolled out in the entire Australian States

tedcruz

Amazing, but also, what a great way to celebrate mediocrity and incompetence. So if an imaginary country of population 1 gets vaccinated today, that means 100% of its population is vaccinated. Also, this shouldn’t be a competition like everything else ffs

FOOLS - Coerced fools.

Pointless comparison. Population sizes are different. Compare to countries with similar counts. US has 190m people fully vaccinated and administering almost 1 million jabs per day. Throw some light of Aussie rates and coverage please

10 times more people are vaccinated in US than Australia. It’s all how you say it.

Sorry but they’ve got a huge country. We are like 5% to them

I received my withdrawal successfully. I must say being an investor with this platform, is one of the greatest thing i have ever happened to me. I recommend everyone to this lifetime investment project good investment company tatiana_alek

Please focus on Australia and in getting Australians vaccinated

What bullshit ! Texas has the same population of Australia plus 4million do a proper comparison as USA population 335,555,000 might take them a bit longer considering the size

So 14,523,517 Australians are vaccinated which overtakes 187,436,334 American vaccinated. Based on todays population per country. Hmm I don’t think we overtake them

We only did because we have less people

Anybody would think it was a race!!!

Hopefully, Australia will open its borders for international students as the rest of the world did a long time ago. Since we reach the percentage and people had already double does of vaccines.

9NewsAdel why is it a competition, it's vaccination not the Olympics stop likening it to a fucking sport

The USA is loony 😜

Yet America have less restrictions and don't have to wear masks everywhere

How is this for a vaccination rate tedcruz better than Texas!! 🤣

Lol as if America gives a toss about a nothing insignificant country like Australia. It took a year before news arrived in Australia that living with covid is reality. Australia just recently found out that the Titanic sunk and the Beatles broke up.

Because American has started to wake up .. but Oz has not ..

Threatening and telling people they can’t work gets you results… democracy

WELL DONE 👏👏

Good on ya, Australia!!! We started late but we are right ahead of the pack!!

Impossible… labour said the government were shit at this

Australian population 26m. USA population 333m. I'm so over this xenophobic 'we're better than anybody else' bullshit!

I should think so, we only 15-20 time less people.

Why are we comparing ourselves to America We are not joined at the hip. It's a miracle that we got this far no thanks to our PM not ordering enough vaccines at the beginning of the Covid problem. The US has a massive population compared to ours,we are totally different.

How big is the US population compared to Australia. Is there an election coming soon?

9NewsMelb Celebrating being the best of the worst

🙄

The US has administered over 400 million doses of CovidVaccine. Enough to fully vaccinate every Australian 8 times. And they did not begin with a VaccineStrollout.

I’m not fool buddy

Take that!

Stupid comparison we only have the population of a large city and USA has 350 mill plus.

You’re kidding yourselves right Look at the difference in population numbers and it’s only by 0.3%. 9 had always struggled to find a headline.

Oh come on!!!! The US vaccinated Australian population number back in April!!!! You should be ashamed of this comparison...Cheap journalism Channel 9!

No one ever ever cared for heart disease deaths or flu deaths why!!!? Cause it ain’t trendy… since we are living in this nonsensical world of ideology… I think scripture should be replaced with Covid as a subjec in school…. because science would agree right

Piss Off! Only because here in Australia they threat people to get Vaccinated or they lose their jobs... I bet in the U.S people can work without been vaccinated. There's more freedom in the USA than Australia. 🖕

So why would Australia celebrate being better than the US in relation to any aspect of our response to this pandemic - the US are a basket case….

What a ridiculous comparison!!!

Low bar…

Not such a great achievement if you think the US has around 15 times our population.

Why are we comparing to the US? They don't even have universal healthcare

California (for example) has a population larger than Australia - by 14m people. They’re doing pretty good for a country with a population 15 times the size of Australia.

So it is a race?

Lol, you picked an easy target to compare with😎

What a tragedy, they will blame it on depression when more people start dying. Australia you have nothing to be praised for. Experimental vaccine administered to healthy people. This is not Australia ! Freedom of choice no longer exists.

25 million people Vs. over 300 million. not an incredible or noteworthy win.

Not even comparable idiots. Compare the population size USA: 335M vs AU: 25.6M …. Useless headlines as usual

Over how this pandemic is used now for a political and/or national dick swinging competition. The lines are the same every day. It's either X politician telling Y politician ' I've done a better job than you' or articles about Oz being the 'best in the world' at everything. Yawn.

So it was a race?

Low bar …

Through coersion and putting people under duress. Great job

There’s a lot more Americans than Australians

So we’re officially bigger braim washed Covidiots than America? 🥴🙄

Not apples with apples

This is great and all but ahhh... This should of occured 5 months ago

Don’t think they care with 90B worth of submarines we will never get and never use Who is the winner

Welldone..now can we open the borders please 😁

We'll it take GB too?

Wow, what a stupid post.

Time for celebrations then!! Who's buying the beer Beer helps with the prevention I heard!!! lol

Go Australia!!!!!!👏👏👏 Although everyone should get vaccinated! COVID19

9NewsMelb Sheep

56% of a much smaller population 😂😂😂😂

Uhhhhh 56.2% of 380M is 213M 56.5% of 27M is 15M not a good comparison

What a tone death comment

Are US citizens being told vax or lose your job, vax or you won’t see family at Xmas, vax or you will be locked in your state, vax or be excluded from social events? Bullied is exactly what we are here.

Great stuff Australia.... very proud of everyone who got Vaccinated and will.

Not something that should be made into a competition on what country has done more of. The full world needs the vaccinations available. This isn’t a flex. Besides… USA population is way larger, sooo stupid 😂 Poor attitude & embarrassing again for Australia about COVID

9NewsAdel Why is Biden saying 60 odd million haven’t yet been vaccinated, when their population total is 330m surely that means more than 55% have been vaccinated... what is the total from in the US?

Australia populations is 2.6 crores apprx and USA population is 33crores apprx 😮

What an absolute joke of a post. Creative accounting & misdirection at it's best. wake up and stop spreading ScottyFromMarketing spin. Total population of each country is Oh wait, who cares, lets compare the % and say how great we are.. that's a newscoro tactic

What a stupid post when you actually compare populations in total, but thanks for the update

I would swap my citizenship for US citizenship in a heartbeat.

Does it matter? Still borders are closed 🙄

Meanwhile most US states have been living their best lives for months and some even scrapping masks and mandates long ago. Nice try though 👍🏼

Keep spewing your Propaganda🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Good sheep don’t worry more jabs to come get ready for your booster the herd because the the original jabs are not working 🥴🦠🦇💉🐑🐏

The ACT and NSW are leading the way with the highest vaccination rates. Read more: 9News

If you had a similar population then it was a good idea to compare… grow up

Did you considered population?

9NewsMelb It's taken a country with free healthcare THIS F'N LONG to overtake a country that doesn't, with over 10x our population. Well done indeed Aussies 🙄

9NewsGoldCoast Are there any achievement on that

So it was a race is what you’re saying.

💩

9NewsMelb are these including under 16’s in both countries, because over 16 we are at 69%?

And 1st dose overtook USA, Germany and Israel. Soon the UK as well.

9NewsMelb Congrat Australia 🥴🥴😂

300mn vs 25mn… too slow

Shit

9NewsMelb Good for us but we can’t compare with USA due to high population.

9NewsSyd God bless Australia

9NewsMelb

If only it was a race.

Yay go australia we beat a country with no national healthcare service very impressive

Pat pat on the vassals back

Whoppee dooo

So fucking sad. Never watching 9 again.

9NewsSyd Lol! They are Comparing 3 crore Australian Population with 32 Crore Population of USA. What a Pathetic Comparison.

Sounds bit rude though… Don’t forget that US helps Aus to get through all this quickly…

I’m not sure we need to gloat about this - it’s a global virus. It’s not over until the whole world is protected.

Pretty easy to do with a far smaller population than the USA, well done USA!

American's aren't being bullied to get vaccinated.

329.5 million vs 20 million

Israel defines two jabs not fully vaccinated! Fully vaccinated are still infectious and could be infected! No mandatory vaccination! This is like to prevent death from cancer, to order chemotherapy for all people in advance! Die of chemotherapy prior to cancer

Well done? They are living freely and packing out sporting events while we are prisoners in our own homes / countries. The whole handle of this from all levels of government has been an absolute disgrace

Not a high bar

RoyalDickie Yep, we’re good in Aus :)

HOW MANY ARE DEAD FROM THE VAX?

LOL, look at our population first and how long it took us to get this far..

Have u heard abour India's vaccination rate

9NewsSyd only 57.5% of total population, not enough

Let us the fuck out

Only because the government put a gun to our heads!!

But the US has about 12x the amount of people

Comparing population of the USA to AUS population?

Not a race hey Scott Morrison? It's not a vaccine hesitancy hey Scott Morrison? It was all about the lack of supplies!!!! Australian's are not stupid!!!!

First cohort of vaccinated are now at risk, no masks and crowds in Britain are keeping hospitals busy, you’re opening with no plans for boosters and the vulnerable AstraZeneca vaccinated in wane, you should but don’t have a plan for boosters and it will bite you on the bum😎 Just in time for Summer.

'I have concerns': WA could struggle to reach vaccination rate beyond 80 per centInternal research finds about 15 per cent of West Australians remain hesitant about getting vaccinated as a decision looms about WA's hard border with NSW. I wasn't concerned. Just gag your chief health officer and you can't claim you knew any better. A $300 incentive might be cheaper instead of releasing Delta (and long lockdowns) to scare them into vaccinating. Now, why would that be? Concentrating too hard on keeping fortress WA intact perhaps?
