Deputy Operational Lead for the Cavan Monaghan COVID-19 Vaccination Service Geraldine Keenan said “We welcome those who are medically vulnerable between the ages of 12 and 49 years for their second booster vaccination at any of our pop up clinics in Cavan and Monaghan this week. We know immunity from COVID-19 vaccination and previous COVID-19 infection decreases over time so getting your booster when it’s due will give you the best protection from serious illness, and increase immunity against infection from COVID-19.  We are also inviting those aged 50 years and over who are also eligible for their second booster vaccinations. This is in addition to Healthcare workers for their second booster vaccination.”
