Third dose 6 months after second dose shows higher efficacy
Pfizer & Bio-N-Tech are seeking approval for a booster shot of their Covid-19 vaccine.
They say data shows a third dose six months after the second dose shows higher efficacy against variants.
From today, 32-year-olds can register for an mRNA vaccine on the HSE's online portal.
It comes as the delivery of 80,000 Johnson and Johnson Covid-19 vaccines to pharmacies is continuing today.
If you’re aged 18 to 34, you can choose to get a single-dose Janssen vaccine at a participating pharmacy. Availability will be limited by supply. You can find a list of these pharmacies at: https://t.co/UCrTj2nLTK#ForUsAll #COVIDVaccines#ThinkPharmacy@HSELive pic.twitter.com/sIdDRnYg08
