Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on the Response to the Covid-19 Pandemic: National Public Health Emergency Team

Dr. Ronan Glynn:

Obviously, the AstraZeneca that would have been going to other groups will now be available. AstraZeneca can be used on anyone aged 60 and older, so, clearly, a substantial supply of AstraZeneca vaccine will be available for people in that cohort. I expect, subject to hearing from the HSE, people who would otherwise have been waiting longer to get vaccine will now be offered AstraZeneca.
