As Ireland progresses further in the national vaccination rollout, with those in their 30s being expected to register for their vaccine as soon as this week, pharmacists have been given the green light to begin administering Covid-19 vaccines.

Pharmacies will join the vaccination programme in a bid to speed up the rollout, ease pressures in mass vaccination centres and give people the choice to be vaccinated in their own community or travel to a vaccination centre.
