Operational Site Manager for the Cavan Monaghan COVID-19 Vaccination Service Paula Loughran said “As we enter the autumn/winter season, it is important that you keep up-to-date with your COVID-19 vaccines, as protection from previous doses or a COVID-19 infection may weaken over time. We would urge people to avail of the opportunity to get either their primary or booster vaccinations at any of our upcoming pop up clinics across Cavan and Monaghan”.
