On 15 February, I announced 37 HSE Vaccination Centres, with at least one for every county. These centres will support the vaccination of the general population in a safe and efficient manner.

While currently vaccines are being administered in healthcare settings and by GPs in communities, many people will be offered their vaccination in these centres, having self-registered online. Each centre varies in size and operating hours and they have been selected based on population density, ease of access, transport and parking.
