Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Impact of Covid-19 on Cancer Services: Discussion
Dr. Clive Kilgallen:
On preventing cancer and other diseases, the first objective of any healthcare system is to keep the healthy people healthy. That is the job of the public health doctors. We need a massive uplift in public health. Recently public health doctors have got new consultant status. That is a good sign. Again, a big uplift in respect of public health is going to be needed.
