Over 90% of Ireland s Olympic team expected to be vaccinated for Tokyo Games Journal.ie 17 hrs ago © Bryan Keane INPHO A view of some of the athletes kit for Tokyo.
Olympic Federation of Ireland (OFI) chief medical officer Dr Jim O’Donovan says he expects over 90% of Ireland’s traveling party for this summer’s Games to be vaccinated before they depart for Tokyo.
The vaccine will not be mandatory for Team Ireland, however, with O’Donovan acknowledging that a small minority of athletes may not wish to receive it for personal reasons or even due to competitive concerns, the latter factor exacerbated by the vaccine becoming available only during such a key juncture in their final preparations.
