The Government have said that the target of providing a first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine to 82% of adults by the end of June is now “likely” to be missed due to supply issues.

They said that if targets are missed it will “only be by a few weeks” and that the government will provide “revised targets” during its announcement tomorrow. 

David Cullinane, Sinn Fáin’s Health spokesperson and TD for Waterford, joined Kieran to discuss on the Hard Shoulder.
