The Shoreline Leisure Centre in Greystones will act as a Covid 19 walk in vaccination clinic again this weekend.

At least 11 are operational from today - with several more in operation over the weekend.

Five are in Leinster, along with three in Munster, two in Ulster and one in Connacht.

Over 30,000 people attended last weekend's walk in clinics.

HSE CEO Paul Reid says this would have covered most of the people who would have wanted to use the facilities.

But it’s hoped there will be strong uptake again this weekend.
