‘No strategy’ on Covid communications for migrants, Cork advocate warns

Sanctuary Runner founder Graham Clifford said: "If you can convince one person to get vaccinated, that one person is likely to convince a few others."

There is “no strategy” for communicating with migrant communities about the risks of Covid-19 and the vaccination programmes that are available, a leading Cork advocate for migrant rights has warned.

People born outside Ireland made up 45% of unvaccinated people admitted to intensive care with Covid between July and November, new figures from the Central Statistics Office (CSO) have revealed.
