Ten thousand people at high risk of serious illness from Covid-19 will start getting their vaccinations this week.
Delayed supplies will also reach around 30 GP surgeries for the last of those aged over 85.
Up to yesterday, 493,873 injections were given, with 147,617 people now fully vaccinated.
525 more people have tested positive for the virus, and 3 more patients have died.
In this region there are 18 new cases in Galway, twelve in Mayo, less than five in both Sligo and Roscommon.
The HSE is still drawing up the list -- and public health expert Professor Anthony Staines says he has yet to get an appointment.
