Pharmacists Receive 10 Calls For Every 1 Available Johnson & Johnson Vaccine From People Aged 18-34

The Irish Pharmacy Union says there's no sign of vaccine hesitancy among the younger age group, who can get the one shot jab in a local chemist from tomorrow

Vaccination centres will begin offering the AstraZeneca vaccine to them from the following Monday.

Darragh O'Louglin from the Irish Pharmacy Union says due to a shortage in supplies, some people may have to wait to get their jab:

"I would say there are about 10 inquiries for every vaccine that's available. So unfortunately, a lot of people won't get an appointment in the first tranche. But people who have left their name and number with a pharmacy can be assured that, as more vaccines become available and as the HSE distributes more vaccines out to pharmacies, the pharmacy will get back in touch with them, and will offer them an appointment as soon as possible."
