Covid Vaccination Update

by admin_im

In line with HSE recommendations, we have replaced our Covid vaccines and now supply “Adapted” vaccines, which provide additional protection against the Omicron variant circulating at present.

These new vaccines are supplied by both Pfizer and Moderna, both of which are supplied in the surgery, and are suitable for those patients seeking booster vaccines. They are not suitable for those looking for their first or second (primary course) vaccines – these are available through the HSE’s Covid Vaccination Centres.

Boosters are available to those whose last booster was more than 4 months ago, and who haven’t had a covid infection in the last 4 months.

Covid boosters are available on a regular basis at the surgery – please email info@inchicoremedical.ie, contact us through our webforms or phone the surgery to enquire.

Further information on boosters can be found on the HSE website

Our mask policy has recently changed, in line with Public Health Advice.

We ask all patients with recent onset respiratory symptoms (runny nose, new cough, sore throat, temperatures) to take an antigen test on the day of their appointment, and to wear a mask on the premises.

Patients without respiratory symptoms are welcome to wear masks during appointments, and those asymptomatic patients without symptoms can also choose not to wear masks.

Clinic staff will continue to wear masks during appointments.

Thank you for your understanding and patience as we continue to work in an efficient and safe manner.
