Over 65s urged to get second Covid booster dose 

There must be a four-month gap since a person has had their last booster jab or had contracted the virus before they receive their next booster jab.

People aged over 65 and those who are immunocompromised have been urged to present for their second Covid-19 booster which is being rolled out on Friday.

Damien McCallion, the HSE's national director of vaccinations, said there are about 750,000 people in those two cohorts with 50,000 of those in the immunocompromised category.
