Vaccination rollout in pharmacies begin today for 18 to 34 year olds

Pharmacies across the country has been overwhelmed by the demand for the Johnson and Johnson vaccine by 18 to 34 year olds.

The national vaccination effort ramps up today with around 750 pharmacies providing coronavirus jabs to people aged 18 to 34.

They'll be getting the Johnson and Johnson vaccine which provides full protection against Covid-19 after just one shot.

From next week, vaccination centres will also be offering the AstraZeneca jab to 18 to 34 year olds.
