Dr. Tony Holohan, Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health, said;

“While we now have a robust testing system in place."

"The success of this system is dependent on people isolating and coming forward to their GP as soon as they experience symptoms."

"Cough, fever, shortness of breath, change in smell or taste, flu like symptoms should be treated as COVID-19 until a GP assessment or test deems otherwise."

“If you are experiencing these symptoms, do not go to work or socialise. Self isolate in your household and contact your GP by phone without delay.”
