RTE's Ryan Tubridy said he will happily take the Covid-19 vaccine live on TV to show that it is safe.
The radio host was speaking on his show on Thursday morning where he said he is upbeat about the future after the latest vaccine news.
Citing some others that said they would prove the vaccine is safe by taking it on TV, the Late Late Show host said he would do the same.
Mr Tubridy said: "I saw Stephen Donnelly, the Health Minister, saying yeah he'd do it live on TV, just to say yeah come on, let's get into this.
"In America, Bill Clinton, George W Bush and Barack Obama have all offered to get the vaccine injected into them on live television.
"Just to take away the mystique, I've been doing the swabbing on the Late Late, and maybe that's what's going to happen when the vaccine comes in.
"I'll happily do that, I'll take the vaccine on TV, I'll do whatever I have to do to get us out of this corner."
The TV personality did however ask people to stay the course and not think the race is run just yet.
The Late Late Show host said that there is only a few more months to go before we are all rewarded.
Reading out a listeners text, Tubridy said: "Getting it now would be like getting sunburned on the last day of your holidays."
He added: "It'd be like getting shot on the last day of the war."
