Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Covid-19 Vaccination Programme: Update

Professor Brian MacCraith:

The total expected delivery for AstraZeneca for the month of February is 190,000 doses, split over three deliveries. We do not have absolute certainty on those deliveries yet. I spoke to AstraZeneca's country lead as late as yesterday evening. We expect to have a delivery in mid-February and one in late February. The totality has been confirmed twice this week and comes in at 191,000 doses, which is approximately what we were led to believe anyway. That does not affect our planning. The issue is the uncertainty from March onwards.
