Keep material design lite tooltip visible after hover

Is it possible to keep a material design lite tooltip open after hovering over it? So for example a user can click on a link in it.

<div id="myTooltip" class="icon material-icons">info</div>
<div class="mdl-tooltip mdl-tooltip--large" for="myTooltip">
  <a href="#">Here</a> is the further information.
</div>

You can stop the tooltip from being hidden on mouseleave and then handle hiding the tooltip based on whatever other actions you want.

For example:

const tt1 = document.querySelector('#tt1');

tt1.addEventListener('mouseleave', (event) => {
  event.stopImmediatePropagation();
  // handle tooltip hide
});

      <a href="#">Link</a><span> followed by text</span>
