Covid-19: 'No change' to Irish vaccine priority after age reports
There is no change to เล่นสล็อต Ireland's policy on vaccine priority, a government spokesperson has said, after reports officials were considering vaccinating younger people ahead of others.
The Department of Health confirmed that the country's health minister had asked for an assessment of such a move.
The department said it was to see what impact the change would have on the transmission of the virus.
The plan could see those aged 18-30 being vaccinated after the over 60s.
The Irish Times reported that Stephen Donnelly, the health minister, had asked officials to look at the vaccine order of priority.
However, Irish broadcaster RTÉ reports that a government spokesperson said there was no change to the country's vaccine policy.
The head of the Republic of Ireland's health service also said he is not aware of a proposal.
The chief executive of the Health Service Executive (HSE), Paul Reid, said his organisation is focused on the government's plan targeting older cohorts and medically vulnerable groups.
Earlier this month, changes were made in the Republic to the vaccine roll-out to make it a system primarily based on age, following medical advice. |
