The minister said the National Immunisation Advisory Committee has so far not signalled its views either way on this question.However, the minister said he feels it is the right time to examine the issue given that Government is now drawing up plans for autumn.As of 8am, there were 776 people in hospital with the virus, an increase of 25 on the same time yesterday.

— RTÉ News June 29, 2022 Meanwhile, Minister for Finance Paschal Donohoe has said that egislation will be considered by the Cabinet around when a mask mandate might be needed. He said people in Ireland have seen the effectiveness of mask wearing in tackling the rise of Covid-19. Speaking on RTÉ's Morning Ireland, Mr Donohoe said Covid infection numbers are rising and urged people who have not yet received a booster dose to do so.

"In particular, for those who are in their late 60s, for those who are immuno-compromised our message is please avail of the booster campaign because that is the greatest line of defence to the disease and getting very sick and impacting on your health and that of those who are near you. And that's where we will focus.

If 2 our 3 dont work its pointless getting any more plus they cant be trusted

Yes and now

Any ideas what could be causing this ?

😂all the anti vaxx nutjobs in the replies, you all took the jab in the end and the boosters and you all wore masks

Who can still be taking this seriously? 4th, 5th and more shots of something that was only trialled a s a two dose regimen

That's what they said about 2nd & 3rd, how many more.

Absolutely not stop this nonsense and wasting tax payers money sort out the hospital mess all over this small country it should be so manageable

Is this anything to do with those 4.5 million doses the government can't sell because no one wants them?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

For sure it should. But if the government isn’t prepared to pay for it then they should make this clear very quickly rather than sitting in the fence. Those 60-65 are in many cases past their 6 months since the last booster. Should they go and pay for one?
