People who have been cocooning and taking other measures against Covid-19 but who are now vaccinated should have confidence about opening up their lives, the State’s chief medical officer, Dr Tony Holohan, has said. In an “open letter”, Dr Holohan said some people might be nervous about the prospect of increased activity and interaction. “While this anxiety is understandable, you can have confidence in your vaccine, no matter which one you received,” he said. If you feel uncomfortable or unsafe, feel empowered to walk away and come back another time,” he wrote. “It is important to be aware of this and give your body time to readjust to being more active,” the letter said.
