I was contacted last night by some concerned staff at Wexford General Hospital. They were told by a senior member of staff that their seasonal flu vaccines and Covid vaccines would not be provided to them in their workplace due to a funding issue. As the Tánaiste knows, this is a preventive measure for the health and safety of workers who are at high risk and it also limits the rate of absenteeism. I ask the Tánaiste to raise this health and safety issue with the appropriate authorities to verify if this is the case and provide the required funding if necessary.
