Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Covid-19 Testing and Air Travel: Nuevo Ireland
Mr. Niall Lord:
I will give an example of what we are doing today. We are doing 54 people today. We have two machines here. There are nine samples per run. We would have those 54 people turned around in approximately three or three and a half hours with test results. On site today, we have two people operating the machines and doing the samples and one doing administration. To scale that up, if you had double that, you would be able to do 100; treble that, you would be into 200. One operator per machine is needed and possibly an admin person between each two machines.
