No further Covid19 related deaths have occurred in Northern Ireland in the past 24 hours.
It means the death toll recorded by the Department of Health remains at 2,154.
However another 73 positive coronavirus cases have been confirmed since yesterday.
It comes after the Department of Health says there has been a significant increase in the number of people seeking to change the date of their second coronavirus vaccine.
It says in recent days, it has received 1,000 requests to reschedule appointments.
Appointments for the second covid-19 jab are usually scheduled after a first appointment is booked, to allow the system to plan ahead for staffing, vaccine supplies and sort appointment slots.
The department is urging people to avoid changing allocated appointment slots where possible.
