Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Dr. John Cuddihy:

That is part of it. It is a complex definition. In Ireland, it includes anyone who works in healthcare, both public and private, whereas, as I mentioned, in some other countries it is a narrower definition. It may include just front-line workers or, in some cases, particular categories of workers such as doctors or nurses. In Ireland, it is a very broad definition.
