Leading medic says testing and contract tracing needs to 'speed up'

There has been a further fall in the number of people being treated with Covid-19 in intensive care units.

The Irish College of General Practitioners (ICGP) said testing and contact tracing needs to be sped up as part of efforts to tackle Covid-19.

President of the ICGP Mary Favier said it is still taking quite a while for patients to get results.
