Denis Naughten
Question:536. Deputy Denis Naughten asked the Minister for Health if he will facilitate the provision of Covid vaccine via community pharmacists to maximise the vaccine uptake; if an evaluation has been carried out as to the reason some cohorts of the population are below the national average when it comes to uptake; if availability in rural areas and travel distances is a factor; if consideration could be given to community pharmacies targeting those who have not yet availed of the vaccine within their age cohort; if he plans to utilise pharmacists in the vaccine roll-out; if so, when they can expect to be providing vaccines to persons; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
