Gerry Horkan (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I have a couple of questions. I will first thank Ms Canavan for all she has been doing. I have seen her on the television at various briefings over the past year or so. In what is either a coincidence or a perk of being a member of this committee, I just checked my email and have received my digital Covid certificate. I can now answer some of the questions people have been asking about what the certificate looks like. At least I have my certificate, although I do not know about anybody else. The certificates are now starting to circulate. I have been checking my email regularly. I thank our guests for that. I wondered had I registered under the name "Gerry" or "Gerald" but my passport name is on the certificate so I can now leave out that question.

I will ask about the pull model for people who have had Covid. Would it be fair to say that many people who had Covid have also have signed up for a vaccine? Is that the case or have most people who have had Covid decided they do not need the vaccine? Do we have any clarity on that matter? If those people have signed up for a vaccine through either the portal or a GP, they will be getting a push email or letter. Is there any clarity or are there any figures on that issue?
