Ireland has completed a deal to secure an extra 700,000 vaccines from Romania.

Taoiseach Micheal Martin says it will come as a welcome boost to our vaccination rollout which has seen huge support and uptake.


The six-millionth vaccine is to be administered this week.

It comes after 30,000 people attended walk-in vaccine centres over the weekend.

The 700,000 additional vaccines will be delivered throughout the month of August.

Health Minister Stephen Donnelly says the additional doses "will allow us to continue to ramp up the rollout of the vaccination programm2".
