DUBLIN, April 27 (Reuters) - The Irish government has agreed
to allow the use of both the Johnson & Johnson and
AstraZeneca vaccines for people over 50 years old, Prime
Minister Micheal Martin said on Tuesday.
The Johnson & Johnson vaccine had been paused by health
authorities and AstraZeneca was only allowed for those over 60.
The country is broadly on target in its rollout, Martin told
journalists when asked if he expected to achieve its goal of
vaccinating 80% of the adult population by the end of June.
