The HSE says a ‘relatively small number’ of GP practices are experiencing issues with their vaccine supplies.

It’s after a doctor claimed around 200 surgeries still haven’t received any doses for the over 85s.

The HSE maintains it’s is on target to administer the first dose of a covid injection to this age cohort by the end of this week.

But Monaghan based GP, Illona Duffy, says there are numerous issues.

"I'm aware of two other practices in Monaghan Town alone that who still have received no vaccines and haven't been able to vaccinate their over 85s population.

"I think we're aware that about 200 practices haven't received vaccines, and it's really not good enough."
