On page 93 of the report it states: "Other factors at play include the profile of workers in nursing homes and the interaction with other

cluster risk situations such as family members, shared accommodation and contact with other high-risk areas such as the meat packing industry." However, it has been cited that there is a particularly high incidence rate in nursing homes located in counties Cavan, Monaghan, Westmeath and Longford. In terms of what has happened in the North, there is similar data. Outside of Dublin the highest incidence rate seems to be centred around the Armagh Council District, which also happens to be a focal point in terms of the location of food factories in the North. Does the panel intend to recommend that a further examination of the link between the situations is carried out?
