Almost 1.7 million vaccines would be delivered to Ireland in the first quarter of the year, the high-level taskforce on Covid-19 vaccination forecast in early January. By the end of February, 520,000 doses had been supplied, and total deliveries at the end of March are not expected to exceed 850,000 doses.

I do, you take their word on future projections and that's all you can do based on whatever your underlying contract is. If there's bumps in the road you address them as you come across them, which is exactly what it looks like is happening with up to 17 such bumps so far. What else can be done to influence it ? Tell me what else can the HSE do to influence what manufacturers tell them. They are purely relaying the information they get and planning based on said information which can only be dealt with at face value

If it had been 4 weeks you'd have to keep a reserve, and April and May's supply would have been mostly second doses. As it stands you can just dish it out fairly sharpish knowing you won't need to start second doses until June.
