Testing for Covid19

23/3/2020

0 Comments

 
Into week 2 of this crisis and I would like to say thank you to our patients for their understanding of our delays at this time. 
The current number of people nationwide waiting for testing is 40,000 to put this in context we have only done 10,000 tests in total so far. The number of sites available for testing is increasing but there is a significant wait to be tested. 
Bear in mind that if you have been referred for testing you should assume you are positive for Covid19 and let us know if your symptoms deteriorate particularly if you become more short of breath. The test will not alter how we medically assess or manage your symtpoms.
