The National Public Health Emergency Team have written to the Government calling on 90% of the population over the age 16 to be fully vaccinated.
In the letter NPHET have reportedly called for 90% plus of the over 16 population to be vaccinated before restrictions can be eased.
The news comes as the HSE have revealed that 87% of the adult population are fully vaccinated, whilst 90.3% have received their first Covid-19 vaccine dose.
It is understood that it would take a total of six weeks before NPHET’s target is reached meaning the easing of restrictions won’t occur until October at the earliest.
