People aged 55 and over, together with pregnant women are being invited to make an appointment for their next booster vaccine against Covid-19.
As from today, those in the above stated age cohort will be able to make an appointment on the HSE website at vaccination clinics, and participating GPs and pharmacies. [e.g. Liberty Pharmacy, Thurles Telephone, – 0504 90604]
Women who are more than 16 weeks pregnant are also invited to book a Covid-19 booster dose.
Dr. Colm Henry, [HSE Chief Clinical Officer] has stated, “We know immunity tends to reduce after a period of months, following your last vaccine, so this booster will give ongoing protection from serious illness, and increase immunity against infection from Covid-19”.
An Post has issued a commemorative stamp to mark the centenary of the death Michael Collins. Same will go on general release tomorrow, Thursday, August 18th, 2022, and will be available in selected post offices nationwide and from anpost.com/shop.
Designed by Mr Ger Garland, with the design featuring photography by C & L Walsh, the national (N) rate stamp displays an portrait image of the Irish revolutionary, soldier and politician dressed in military uniform; same image courtesy of the National Library of Ireland.
A commemorative First Day Cover (envelope) has also been produced by An Post, which carries the new stamp and a specially designed cancellation mark featuring the name of Collins in similar typeface to that found on the Béal na Bláth monument.
The Death of Michael Collins, assassinated on August 22nd, 1922, was the highest profile casualty of the Irish Civil War, which arose because of the agreed terms of the Anglo-Irish Treaty.
In a break from historical convention, and marking the Co. Cork background of Michael Collins; the cancellation mark includes the designation ‘Corcaigh’.
One disappointing aspect of this welcome Commemorative Stamp – where are the words “Mícheál Ó Coileáin”.

A serving off duty member of An Garda Síochána was arrested on suspicion of drink driving on Sunday last in Co. Tipperary. The officer has since been charged and is due to appear in Clonmel court over the coming weeks.
An Garda Síochána have confirmed that “an off duty member of An Garda Siochana, stationed in the Southern Region, was arrested in Clonmel on Sunday morning, 14/8/22, on suspicion of driving under the influence of an intoxicant. That member was subsequently charged to a future sitting of Clonmel District Court”.
Prior to his arrest, at a mandatory checkpoint in Co Tipperary, he is understood to have been found to be seriously over the legal limit having failed a roadside breath test, [Same legal limit currently stands at 22 microgrames of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath].
If convicted in court the officer faces a fine of €400, as well as losing his driving licence for three consecutive years, and indeed, subject to then circumstances, may also lose his job within the Garda force.
