Latest: Test results due back on suspected coronavirus case at Cork University Hospital
an Irish man, aged in his early-to-mid 20s, who recently returned from China, presented at the hospital with symptoms similar to those of coronavirus.
It’s understood he presented at Cork University Hospital and was assessed at the Medical Assessment Unit.
This assessment raised fears that he could have coronavirus and he was placed in isolation.
Tests were conducted and the results are expected back this evening.
Sources have told The Echo that the likelihood of the man having coronavirus is currently low, but that they are awaiting the results.
The Department of Health was contacted for comment on the suspected case but said there were no confirmed cases of coronavirus in Ireland.
作為愛爾蘭冠狀病毒準備措施的一部分,衛生部門在明天開始分大約3,000名GP,公共衛生醫生和診所分發個人防護設備包。
健康保護監視中心臨時主任約翰·庫迪西博士 Dr John Cuddihy 說,這種病毒在人與人之間傳播的能力是有限的。
他說,愛爾蘭沒有確診病例,人們極不可能在這裡感染該病毒。
Personal protective equipment packs will be issued to around 3,000 GPs, public health doctors and clinics, as part of coronavirus preparation measures in Ireland.
The Health Service Executive said distribution of the packs will begin tomorrow.
Interim Director of the Health Protection Surveillance Centre Dr John Cuddihy said the ability of the virus to transmit from person to person is limited.
He said there is no confirmed case in Ireland and people are extremely unlikely to catch the virus here.

HSE警告不要將冠狀病毒與中國人聯繫在一起
星期四都柏林舉行的HSE簡報會上,凱萊赫爾博士強調說,這種起源於武漢市的病毒不僅只影響中國人。
都柏林的一家中餐館老闆對RTÉ的Liveline計劃發表了評論,他說,自從病毒恐慌開始以來,他的生意“大幅下降”。
愛爾蘭中餐協會秘書長張彤表示,上週日的小報頭條 : “都柏林機場的中國病毒”產生了“巨大影響”。
都柏林一家中餐館老闆補充說:“自從那篇文章登出後,我們的生意就慘淡了。”
在周四針對流感季節的最新簡報中,凱萊赫爾博士批評了部分媒體就該病毒某些報導方式。
他說:“這不是中國的疾病, 是關於從中國回來的人, 以貶義來報導它是非常不合適的。
HSE warns against ‘prejudice’ of associating coronavirus with Chinese
At a briefing in Dublin on Thursday on the HSE’s response to the global threat, Dr Kelleher stressed the virus – which originated in the city of Wuhan– did not affect only Chinese people.
It follows comments on RTÉ’s Liveline programme by a Chinese restaurant owner in Dublin who said his business was “going down deeply” since the virus scare started.
Chinese Restaurant Association in Ireland secretary general Tong Zhang said there was a “huge impact” from a tabloid newspaper headline last Sunday stating: “China virus at Dublin Airport.”
A Dublin Chinese restaurant owner added: “Our business is dead since that article came out.”
Speaking at the latest HSE briefing for the flu season on Thursday, Dr Kelleher criticised the way the virus was being presented in some parts of the media.
“There is no rationale for that whatsoever for what is being talked about in some media channels,” he said.
“This is not a Chinese disease. It is very inappropriate to use that in a derogatory way. It is about people who have returned from China.
“It causes great difficulties and it has the potential to make people not come forward as a consequence if that degree of prejudice exists.”
