Submitting.
The Covid 19 vaccine roll-out continues.
The roll-out will follow what the Department of Health call a ‘twin-track’ approach - with some population groups being invited to a series of seven mass vaccination sites spread throughout Northern Ireland, and others being invited to get the jab at their local GP practice.
So far, the programme has focussed on those that live or work in care homes, frontline health workers, and the over-80s - a population of around 175,000 people.
As of January 24, 186,112 first doses had been administered as phase one nears completion.
If you are aged 80 or over and have still not had your vaccine, the official advice is that you don’t call your local practice and instead wait to be invited. The Department of Health insist that no one will be forgotten about.
