Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Long Covid and Monkeypox: Discussion

Professor Fiona Lyons:

There is no typical stay because some of the individuals involved have not had a medical requirement for hospitalisation. It has been primarily because they have not been able to safely isolate within their homes. We have been able to manage most of the individuals who have been infected in their homes.

The admission could be very short and range from a number of days up to a couple of weeks. We have had a couple of patients who have been in hospital with us for a number of weeks.
