Head of HSE says no flu vaccines sent to GPs and pharmacists have gone missing

The head of the HSE insists no flu vaccines sent out to GPs and pharmacists have gone missing.

1.3 million doses have been distributed so far, but reports this morning suggested 600 thousand of them aren't accounted for.

The HSE says that may be because vaccines which have been sent out haven't been given to patients yet or doctors haven't applied for reimbursement.
