Taoiseach Micheál Martin gets Covid-19 vaccine

Mr Martin got an AstraZeneca jab at the Cork City Hall vaccination centre on Sunday afternoon.

Speaking to media at the centre, he said: “I think we’re making great progress as a country.

“I think people have done extremely well in responding to the various guidelines over the last number of months and the results are that we are emerging from this pandemic.

“We’re set to have a good summer if we can keep this progress going and the vaccination is certainly helping in bring down severe illness and bringing down death and hospitalisation, so keep with it and we’re making progress.”
