Call for tighter monitoring as trawler crew who landed in Castletownbere test positive for Covid-19
There have been calls for tighter health monitoring at Irish fishing ports following confirmation of an outbreak of coronavirus amongst the crew of a trawler just days after they landed their catch in West Cork.
The French-flagged Spanish-owned fishing vessel that landed in Castletownbere 13 days ago has been quarantined in a Spanish port since Friday after more than half its 15 strong crew tested positive for the coronavirus.
