Gardaí are carrying out inquiries to establish if anything contained in leaflets distributed to children and parents outside Cork schools this week by anti-vaccination protestors warrants investigating. Gardaí were contacted about the leaflets being distributed in Ballincollig on Wednesday by two women who were not wearing masks. The leaflets contained misinformation about the nasal flu vaccine administered to children here, regarding its safety, efficiency, and long-term effects. INTO have issued a statement on anti vaccine groups assembling outside primary schools in Cork. Parents at a primary school in Ballincollig were approached earlier this week.
