86,200 doses have been administered to residents and staff at Long term residential care facilities.
133,000 have gone to frontline healthcare workers.
The HSE CEO has also insisted that not administering the AstraZeneca vaccine to over 70's will not greatly affect the rollout plans.

Earlier, Paul Reid urged the public to bear with them as the vaccine rollout continues.
He says the HSE has always been clear that the vaccine programme will have many twists and turns in quarter one.
