Ms Niamh O'Beirne:

At the moment we are doing more than 91% of the swabs to result within 48 hours. The median for a negative result is two days and for a positive one it is close to three days. The difference between the two has to do with time and phone calls; the text messages can go out later but phone calls have to be done between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.
