The Head of the HSE says it's inexcusable that some staff in nursing homes are refusing to be vaccinated against Covid-19.

And it comes as Ailsbury and Ashbury nursing homes told Andrea Gilligan on Lunchtime Live on Newstalk they’ve had to offer raffles and cash prices for staff.

Tadgh Daly, CEO of Nursing Homes Ireland, joined Kieran on Monday's edition of The Hard Shoulder.

It was also revealed recently by the Department of Health that there are no plans to buy Covid-19 vaccine supplies outside of the EU.

David Quinn is a columnist with the Sunday Times, and he told Kieran why it's a scandal.
