Galway TD demands clarity in Dáil over vaccination of the housebound

Galway Bay fm newsroom - A Galway TD has demanded clarity in the Dáil over when the Covid-19 vaccination will reach all of those who are housebound.

Deputy Sean Canney told the chamber there is one woman in his own town that is still waiting for a vaccine at 105 years of age.

He accepted the National Ambulance Service is addressing the situation, but said there is a complete lack of communication over what counties are to be progressed and when.
