Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Covid-19: Testing and Tracing
Dr. Colm Henry:
We do not have a system in place whereby we track and trace every individual who comes into our country for 14 days. We give very stringent advice to people that this is what we consider appropriate in the context of the transmissibility of Covid-19 and the potential of somebody coming into our country transmitting that virus unknown to them. We do not track and trace people who come into the country at this stage.
