The vaccine roll out in Northern Ireland has been accelerated as 65-69 year olds are now invited to book for their vaccine.
People aged 65-69 can now book their Covid-19 vaccination appointments at one of NI’s seven regional vaccination centres.
The online booking is available at covid-19.hscni.net
The Department of Health this week announced a twin track approach to accelerating NI’s vaccination programme - ensuring more people can take up the offer of vaccination and help protect themselves against Covid-19.
