Latest NPHET Modelling On Covid Figures Flawed

NPHET's modelling on the direction the spread of Covid could take over the coming months, didn't take into account changes to the vaccine roll-out.

It means the models cabinet used to make its decision on delaying re-opening of indoor dining, were out of date.
Taoiseach Micheál Martin told Ministers on Tuesday they included the changes to the vaccine roll-out that will allow younger people to access AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson.
However, CMO Dr Tony Holohan told opposition TDs yesterday, the modeling did not take into account a faster vaccine roll-out.
