Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Covid-19: Testing and Tracing
Dr. Colm Henry:
The figures I have from the HPSC indicate that, thankfully, 90% have recovered. Clearly, any of our healthcare workers in the front line, be it in the community, in nursing homes or in hospitals, are a concern to us given that they are delivering care for patients. That care is sometimes of a very personal nature in the case of older frail residents. It is as important to us, as it is to the INMO, that we can provide a safe working environment for our healthcare workers.
