Covid-19 vaccination is set to be delivered according to age under a change to the system announced by the Government.
The National Vaccination Programme will be amended once the over 70s, the vulnerable and people with underlying conditions are giving protection.

The National Immunisation Advisory Committee has also advised that no occupational group is at higher risk of disease or death from Covid-19.
