The issue of screening at airports has been considered by the National Public Health Emergency Team on the basis of advice provided to it by the Pandemic Influenza Expert Group and has decided not to introduce screening at this time. The matter is however being reviewed on a daily basis. Health notices at Airports and Ports are in place.
