Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Update on the Cyberattack, Covid-19 Vaccination Roll-out and Covid-19 Restrictions in Maternity Hospitals: Health Service Executive
Mr. Paul Reid:
At that stage they were the ones in Wexford, Kilkenny and Tullamore. They have put in place workarounds to try to support that based on the infrastructure they have. I will make one final comment and then pass over to Dr. Henry. Separately, there are emergency situations, aside from the four areas I referred to, where a woman might be getting difficult news and we need to ensure those situations are treated compassionately.
Dr. Henry is leading that dialogue with consultants. I ask him to make a few comments.
