Covid-19 Vaccination Programme: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2021-04-22
============================================================

Mary Butler (FF), Waterford

I agree with Deputy O'Dowd that we have seen an increase in the referral of young people, especially since the turn of this year. Last week, for example, I met the mental health lead from every CHO in the country. I will come back to the Deputy in writing on his query.
I assure Deputy O’Sullivan that, starting today, the HSE will make direct contact with every single housebound person to let them know what the situation is and when they can expect to get the vaccine. I take on board all the comments made.
