Meanwhile, unvaccinated students will be encouraged to get jabbed at a number of walk-in clinics at university and college campuses this week.
Health Minister Robin Swann has welcomed the “Jabbathon” initiative, and called on students to get vaccinated ahead of the new academic year.
Vaccines will also be provided at the Balmoral Show, with a walk-in clinic running every day.
The Ulster Unionist minister said: “The drive to get as many people in Northern Ireland vaccinated continues with a series of walk-in clinics.
“Every single vaccination counts, for individuals, for their family and friends and for our health service.
“We are all deeply concerned about the immense pressures on the health and care system.
“Getting your jab is the single most important thing you can do for the health service and its staff.”
