HSE Upbeat About Vaccination Of Staff In Nursing Homes

The HSE says it  is "encouraged" by the number of nursing home staff getting vaccinated, according to a senior official.

However up to 15 per cent of staff in some nursing homes may have refused a Covid-19 vaccine. Yesterday, HSE CEO Paul Reid said staff in the facilities refusing the vaccine is "inexcusable".
