The parents of a young Longford woman who died suddenly from a lethal form of meningitis almost three years ago are still concerned about the government's immunisation policy for it.
Gemma McGee who was 24 years old died on the 4th of August in 2018 just 36 hours after becoming unwell.
A vaccine against the rare condition was available in Northern Ireland at the time, but not in the Republic ,and Gemma's parents have since successfully campaigned for it to be given to children here under 13.
An inquest into Gemma's death held in Dublin last week heard a call from the coroner for a public awareness campaign to highlight the dangers of the meningitis strain, and the family's legal representative Mark Conellan says they were happy with the support.
He says though that the McGee's are still not happy there is no "catch-up" MenACWY vaccine for over 13's available here yet through the public health system.
