We are hearing ever changing reports of when people over 70s will be vaccinated.  

The original plan was that everyone in that age category would have their first dose by the end of March. A few days ago HSE CEO Paul Reid said it would be mid-April and there was even reports yesterday that it could be as late as mid-June.

Andrea hears from listeners.
