5:00 pm

I want to return to the issue of pregnant women and the Minister confirming they will be offered an mRNA vaccine between 14 and 36 weeks. They have been left not knowing what the plans are and what the situation is. It is particularly worrying for people who are past 30 weeks of pregnancy. They do not know whether they are going to get it in time for that 36-week cut-off point. What, therefore, is the situation? Has that process begun? Who is going to be responsible, or who is responsible, for registering pregnant women? Where will those vaccines be administered and by whom?
