The Covid-19 vaccine rollout began on December 27, 2020 with a Pfizer-BioNTech dose given to 89-year-old care home resident Josefa Pérez, in l'Hospitalet de Llobregat. 

That got the ball rolling on a scheme that prioritizes care home users and workers, healthcare staff, and people with severe disabilities living at home. 

Authorities aim to administer vaccines to 70% of the population by the end of 2021, which, according to them, would ensure group immunity. 

As of January 17, official figures, which are released daily on this website, state that 144,801 residents in Catalonia have been vaccinated, 1.88% of the total population. 

On December 27, an aim of 104,000 jabs in two weeks was set, but one week later, and facing criticism for a slow rollout, authorities said that their goal is inoculating 748,000 people in the first 12 weeks of the scheme – that is to say, approximately by March 21. 

The following graphs shows how the rollout has evolved in Catalonia since the first dose. All figures are provided by the Catalan health department and are updated daily.
