THE NATIONAL PUBLIC Health Emergency Team is expected to discuss testing errors when it meets later today.
Yesterday, the HSE said that some people were incorrectly told that they had tested negative for Covid-19.
The error was blamed on the fact that some lab tests had been returned with indeterminate results.
Less than 100 people are said to be affected by the testing error.
There have been repeated questions about Ireland’s testing capacity. Yesterday, HSE chief executive Paul Reid said the backlog of testing has been reduced from 35,000 to 11,000.
Over 72,000 tests for Covid-19 have now been completed, with a delivery of testing reagent having now been received from China.
The National Public Health Emergency Team is also expected to look at the challenge facing nursing homes during the crisis.
Coronavirus clusters have been detected in 140 nursing homes, according to the latest figures from the Health Protection Surveillance Centre.
So far, 365 people have died in Ireland during the coronavirus outbreak. There are now 10,647 confirmed cases of the virus in Ireland.

Fancy meeting you here, Rust
Should the last line not read ‘Farewell Hart and Cohle’?
Are you telling me I have Rust Cohle on the brain? *Ahem*
(That’s fixed)
Not to mention that Kelly Reilly was also in Calvary. Excellent actress.
She was indeed!
And Above suspicion with Ciaran Hinds too, tis was good too.
The joys of showbox means there won’t be much of a wait here
Loved the first season – had so much going for it with the cast involved. Colin Farrell is a great actor but has made some awful choices in the movies he’s made- fingers crossed this will get him back on track. Top marks for the Tache!!!
This series has a lot to live up to. Rust and Cohle were bloody great and Carcosa was an excellent story. Long live these great TV shows, because everything else on the box is cack!!!
Brilliant last season
Preserve us from Colin Farrell.
have your say
