Kerry people donate over 20,000 UNICEF vaccines over Christmas

Kerry people have donated over 20,000 COVID-19 vaccines to the world's poorest countries.

UNICEF Ireland has revealed it's had a surge of donations from Kerry people over Christmas.

This surge of donations brings the county's total to 55,000 since the Get a Vaccine, Give a Vaccine campaign started last March.

UNICEF has delivered more than one billion COVID-19 vaccine doses to developing countries in an effort to ensure fair access to vaccines.
