The HSE’s lead for infection control, professor Martin Cormican has said there is no shortage of Covid-19 vaccines for the additional dose and booster campaigns for the immunocompromised and vulnerable.

Prof Cormican told RTÉ radio’s Morning Ireland that people did not have to contact the HSE to see if they need an additional dose, they would be contacted with an appointment. “We have enough vaccines for everyone.”
