A HSE assessment at the start of the Covid outbreak found that 326 additional ventilators could be used in acute hospitals. Despite this, the HSE placed orders for almost 3,500 ventilators.

Officials estimate that more than €8 million is “unrecoverable” of the amount that the HSE spent buying ventilators during the early days of the Covid pandemic.

A new report from the Comptroller and Auditor General found after the virus outbreak, the HSE identified that there were 533 ventilators available for use for adult patients in the acute hospital system.
