Our earlier experience in

دَبَبْتُ للمجدِ والساعون قد بلغوا
جَهْدَ النفوس وألقَوا دونه الأُزُرا
وكابدوا المجد حتى ملَّ أكثرُهم
وعانقَ المجدَ مَن أوفى ومَن صَبَرا
لا تحسَبِ المجدَ تمرًا أنتَ آكلُه
لن تبلغَ المجد حتى تلعَق الصَّبِرا.

What’s also important I believe is the proportion of those eligible for the vaccine and have actually registered. Because if of 2M expat 0.25M register vs 0.9M Kuwaiti 0.25 register, then the reason for disparity might originate there ?
