Irish Air Corps Vaccine Delivery to the Islands

Irish Air Corps crews delivered the first Covid-19 vaccines to the Aran Islands, Co. Galway and to Árainn Mhór, Co Donegal.
Shipments of the Moderna Vaccine were flown from Casement Aerodrome to the Islands by two EC-135 helicopters and handed over to GP's on arrival.
This operation was conducted as part of our continued support to the HSE in the fight against Covid-19.

They are Eurocopter EC 135s I believe, for quite a poor Air Force, a fantastic helicopter.
