Irish GPs warned of mutated Covid strain arriving from Denmark

The Covid clinical lead of the Irish College of General Practitioners, Dr Nuala O’Connor, has said that a circular was sent to GPs on Monday to advise them to “maintain increased awareness” about the possibility of Covid-19 in patients arriving in Ireland from Denmark.

Dr O’Connor told RTÉ radio’s Morning Ireland that the circular had been distributed to GPs at the request of the Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC).
