Coronavirus: New test with faster results available in Ireland

New testing kits for the novel Coronavirus, which deliver results within four to six hours, are now available in Ireland.
Public health experts are expecting to see a small number of confirmed cases identified in Ireland, most likely involving indirect travel from central China. While a number of major airlines have stopped flying from China, Moscow remains a hub through which travellers reach cities in Western Europe.
Specialists here see general practitioners as having a key role in ensuring there is no community spread of the novel virus. Suspected cases must not be referred to hospital emergency departments; protocol advises isolation in the persons home while the local public health department is contacted.
