Ireland's Adult population to hit 80 per cent fully vaccinated this weekend

80 per cent of Ireland's adult population will be fully vaccinated by the weekend.

While 90 per cent will have received at least one dose.

Another walk-in vaccination centre will be open to the public tomorrow in Longford.

Any aged 16 or older can present themselves at the vaccination centre in Newtownforbes to get their first dose of the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine.

The centre will run for four hours tomorrow from 9am to 1pm.

HSE CEO Paul Reid says the rollout is now in its "final leg", and says the vaccines offer strong protection from Covid.
