No Booster Hesitancy Says Ennis GP Who Fears Misinformation Will Lead To It

A Clare GP is dismissing suggestions of a reluctance by people to receive their Covid-19 booster shot.

Over half of the 180 thousand booster appointments made for last week were marked as ‘did not attend’ but it’s suggested that people being offered multiple bookings for their booster may be part of the problem.

Ennis GP Dr Maire Finn says there has been no reluctance by her own patients to accept their third dose when offered.

But she fears that misinformation on system failures could result in people who initially wanted their booster changing their mind.
