Walk-in clinic open in Punchestown this morning

Covid-19 vaccine booster doses are being made available to those aged 30 to 39 from today.

While those aged 16 to 29, who received a one dose Johnson and Johnson vaccine, are also eligible for a booster.

Vaccinations can only take place 3 months after a primary vaccine, or a positive Covid-19 test result.

Professor of Infectious Diseases Jack Lambert says the booster campaign should be ramped up:

A walk-in vaccination clinic is open in Punchestown this morning.

Members of the public aged over 30 & healthcare workers are invited to attend.
