The family of a 16-year-old girl who died at University Hospital Limerick (UHL) almost two years ago has said a major report into her death must be published immediately.

Aoife Johnston, from Co Clare, died on December 19, 2022, at UHL after suffering from meningitis-related sepsis and was left for more than 16 hours without antibiotics — a vital treatment to help save her life.
