Dr Tony Holohan, Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health is asking people to focus on these five actions to reduce your risk and keep yourself and your loved ones safe:
- If you have cold or flu like symptoms, isolate immediately and get a PCR test, not an antigen test
- Prioritise who you need to meet
- Meet others outdoors and open windows when indoors
- Wear a mask properly
- Use the right test and understand what the test result means
