Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Long Covid and Monkeypox: Discussion

Professor Fiona Lyons:

We were very lucky that from the very beginning of this outbreak we have been able to work collaboratively, nationally and internationally. We would sit on many international groups to try to learn from the experience of others and learn from each other. It is best practice in the European Medicines Agency has indicated that in the context of limited supply of vaccines, we should consider adopting this route. The Chief Medical Officer has instructed a review on that following NIAC's recommendation on that.
