Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Non-Covid Healthcare Disruption: Waiting Lists and Screening (Resumed)
Mr. Liam Woods:
They will run coterminous with the availability of the vaccine. In the hospital environment specifically, it is very much about having the vaccine and engaging in peer-to-peer vaccination within the sites. At public health level, we have an ongoing engagement with hospitals on flu vaccine uptake, and our public health leads are engaged in that. On the Deputy's specific questions, I will have to refer back to her. I do not have the date for the start of the campaign as it is not within my remit, but I can get it for the Deputy unless Ms McArdle is aware of it.
