CMO Offers Advice To The Public
The Chief Medical Officer Dr. Tony Holohan also has this message:
"We need to continue to focus on the measures that we know can protect ourselves and our loved ones from COVID-19."
Adding to that, he says, "we can plan to meet friends and family where it is safe to do so and those who have been vaccinated can have confidence in their vaccine."
"They are now able to get out and about and enjoy the benefits of the vaccine."
"The two primary targets as we try to exit the pandemic are vaccination and low transmission."
