Rapid Antigen Testing for Aviation and Travel Sectors: Discussion

Mr. Chris O'Grady:

It would be highly irresponsible to bring infected people to the site on the day of the event for testing and then segregate infected people from others. One is bringing them all to, in GAA terms, Drumcondra to tell them who cannot go. If we utilise an independent testing centre such as we operate and Dr. Power operates, directing people to such a centre for an event could unnecessarily mix an event attendee with a possibly symptomatic individual who is not attending the event.
