On-campus Covid tests offered to UL students to curb spike in cases

A testing centre will be established on the UL campus this week, and students will be invited to register.

On-campus Covid-19 testing is to be offered to students at the University of Limerick due to a rise in cases, believed to be associated with students living in off-campus accommodation.

The university is to facilitate on-campus testing by HSE Mid-West Community Healthcare for all students, who do not need to have symptoms of the virus, in a bid to prevent further transmission among the student population.
