Dr. Ciaran Bannan:

Absolutely. We are in a good position in Ireland in that we have a national model of care. We have a collective group that meets on a regular basis to discuss what is happening in the world, what the new research is and research avenues that we can go down to look at potential new treatments. One of the major caveats of medicine is to first, do no harm. Any new treatments will need to be in the context of a controlled clinical trial basis and we would be looking to collaborate internationally with organisations on that. There is much research ongoing in the field of long Covid. We are all hopeful for a magic bullet at some stage.
