It shows, despite having the highest levels of the spread of the virus Monaghan and Donegal have the lowest uptakes of vaccines with just 81 and 83% respectively getting jabbed.

It’s followed by Laois which has 85% of people getting the vaccine.

While the highest uptake is around the south-east with Tipperary, Waterford, Wexford and Carlow all having uptakes of more than 96%, Carlow’s alone is at 97.7%.

Kilkenny is the eighth lowest county on 89.9%.
