With regard to contact tracing, we were advised this morning that there are 100 people working on it today and the Minister said there will be 150 people working full-time on contact tracing by the end of the week.

Where are these people coming from? Have they been redeployed from other areas of the health service or have they been contracted to do the work of contract tracing?
