Covid-19 Vaccination Programme: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2021-03-25
============================================================

Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

If everything comes in within the next five days as contracted, the shortfall would be fewer than 100,000 doses. Obviously, we want everything that has been committed to, as we have discussed on several occasions. AstraZeneca has not to date lived up on that. The shortfall will involve, rather than 1.2 million doses, 1.1 million doses or thereabouts. It is meaningful and it does matter. We are engaged closely and we fully expect to AstraZeneca to make good on its full deliveries.
