View answerAuthorised vaccines are subject to ongoing monitoring in Ireland by the Health Products Regulatory Authority (HPRA).
Information on national and global safety monitoring experience, including reviews of deaths following vaccination, are included in the HPRA and EMA updates published on the respective websites.
The HPRA follows up on reports of suspected adverse reactions received from Healthcare professionals and members of the public through the voluntary reporting system, including any deaths notified following vaccination.
