Merlin Park, along with sites in Dublin and Portlaoise have been set up by the HSE and National Ambulance Service to administer the Moderna jab.

The storage freezers arrived at the centres in the early hours of this morning, and the first one was given to a patient at 10:30am.

It's hoped that those GP teams, who are due their next vaccine in 28 days, will be able to administer the doses in the coming months.
