Professor Patricia Kearney:

One of the things it is important to consider when we are talking about testing capacity is the type of capacity because there are many different steps in the process of testing. We saw testing being rolled out in Croke Park, for example, in terms of actually taking the swabs but then it is a question of getting those swabs to the laboratories, the laboratories analysing them, the process of getting the results and acting appropriately on those. The important point for me, when we are thinking about ensuring that our testing capacity is appropriate, is making sure that we are paying attention across all of that.
