Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Covid-19: Testing and Tracing

Dr. Colm Henry:

For patients, we carry out an analysis of every case to try to see whether it community acquired or nosocomial, that is, healthcare acquired. It is not always straightforward because of the number of contacts and the amount of exposure patients would have had before coming into hospital and before first developing symptoms. As a result, there would be limited information on that issue.
