Misinformation spread on social media may be the biggest obstacle to some young people availing of early Covid vaccinations while the majority are keen to take it, young people on the streets of Cork city said on Friday.

Those aged 18 and older have been offered early access to the one-shot Janssen or the two-shot Astra Zeneca vaccines.
