Irish Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Ronan Glynn, has condemned the misinformation being spread online, and how many people have been exposed to such information which is totally false, totally inaccurate and totally misleading and which had begun being spread about potential Covid-19 vaccines, even before same had been fully developed.
Here in Thurles, indeed we are sadly being subjected by a small minority of individuals to such undermining of vaccination efforts, being posted on social media, which may be putting a very small minority of lives at risk.
Same has not been helped by Tipperary elected TD’s failing to confirm whether or not they themselves have been fully vaccinated, some claiming that it was, “an infringement on civil liberties.”

Ireland remains in a very precarious position in the fight against Covid-19 and the medical profession are urging people to stay vigilant in the coming weeks, as relaxation measures are being slowly eased and as the Delta strain remains particularly high among young people.
The Delta varient is now spreading and how it will affects you depends on whether your body has been prepared by current vaccines, to enable you to fight it.
