The Department of Health has announced a "Big Jab Weekend" to encourage as many people as possible to get vaccinated against Covid-19.

The promotion on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 August will see mass vaccination centres in Northern Ireland again offering walk-in first jabs for all adult age groups.

This is in addition to ongoing vaccinations at walk-in pop-up clinics, and at participating community pharmacies. Mass vaccination centres, such as at the SSE Arena in Belfast, will soon be winding down their work after nine months.

They stopped offering first doses to the general population at the end of July, but are returning to that role this weekend.
