Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Update on Covid-19: Discussion
Dr. Tony Holohan:
We are. The recommendation already adopted and which the HSE is preparing to implement in respect of people who are immunocompromised and in need of an additional dose of a vaccine, as opposed to a booster shot, is that all these aspects will be part of the advice, guidance and informed consent procedures that the HSE has put in train. However, we expect to hear an update from the EMA concerning developments in this context in the near term.
