Private Covid-19 Testing Facility Opening At Cork Airport Tomorrow
Healthcare company RocDoc are offering express tests to passengers and the general public, with results available within a few hours.
The centre is conducting tests in accordance with the EU's traffic light travel system which has been in place since the start of the week.
New rules will allow people arriving from red countries to reduce the length of time they have to quarantine if they get a test 5 days after arriving.
Editor of Air and Travel magazine Eoghan Corry says the new rules will be great for the business community:
"It's going to be a big game changer for the business community. Not that relevant outside of business people but it's the start of a process of reconnecting Ireland in a business sense with the rest of the world, where we haven't been really since the start of the summer."
