Yesterday Professor Jack Lambert addressed the health committee in relation to the effects of long Covid-19. He is an infectious disease consultant at the Mater hospital and he painted a stark picture in regard to those suffering the symptoms of long Covid-19. He was quite critical of the present policy around treating those with long Covid-19. He cited an ambivalence in relation to his own medical profession towards those with long Covid-19. Long Covid-19 is interpreted as having more than three months of symptoms particularly around chronic fatigue. He was quite critical of the plan in relation to the State. Will the Minister address some of the issues raised by the professor around addressing some of the effects of long Covid-19?
