People attending Covid-19 tests reminded not to take public transport

The HSE advises those attending their test to try to avoid other people as much as possible when going to their appointment.

The National Transport Authority (NTA) is reminded people of HSE advice that public transport should not be used by those attending a Covid-19 test appointment.

"This advice was published by the HSE last year, but in light of the increase in testing activity, it is worth re-iterating at this stage," an NTA spokesperson said.
