The Department of Health has issued a reminder of how and where to get your vaccine.
"Every vaccine represents a step forward, a step already taken by almost a million people here in Northern Ireland.
"By getting vaccinated you will not only be protecting yourself and others but also helping to accelerate the pace at which we can reclaim the freedoms we all took for granted and have missed so much."
Booking your vaccine involves a few simple steps:
- If possible, you should book online at: www.nidirect.gov.uk/covidvaccine. You will be able to book an appointment and get detailed information on vaccine and setting options.
- Where online booking is not possible, the telephone booking number is 0300 200 7813.
