Meanwhile, Health Minister Robin Swann has said he is encouraged by the response to a major push to get more people in Northern Ireland vaccinated against Covid.
The Big Jab Weekend has seen walk-in vaccination centres opening again for first doses for all adults, amid concerns over the high number of Covid cases in the region.
Queues were reported outside vaccination centres on both Saturday and Sunday.
Mr Swann said: “The first day has been very encouraging. It has been great to see so many young people coming forward to get protected from Covid-19.
“To anyone still holding back, my message is simple – don’t be left behind. Please head to one of our mass vaccination clinics or mobile pop-up clinics today.
“Vaccination protects you and the people around you and it opens doors to normality.”
