TB screening at creche after adult case confirmed
It will be the second phase of screening to take place at the Nurture Childcare facility in Douglas in the last two months after a case of the disease was first confirmed at a separate childcare facility in March.
Identification of the outbreak began following the diagnosis of a childcare worker with TB at the Panda Paws preschool and childcare facility in Little Island, Co Cork, on March 15. Following that diagnosis, 140 children and staff underwent screening.
