As of August 28, 2023, South Koreans in their twenties had the highest coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccination rate in South Korea for the initial two shots, at 99.8 percent and 98.9 percent respectively. All adult age groups reported very high vaccination rates. Winter booster shot rates however were much lower across all age groups, though older age groups were more likely to have gotten them. Only around 13 percent of people nationwide have been vaccinated with a bivalent winter booster, which is more effective against current dominant strains. These shots were only offered in the winter of 2022.
