The Health Service Executive has said it is working to put the new public health guidance for close contacts into operation.

In a statement, the HSE said this will mean providing antigen tests to all close contacts who are asymptomatic, with separate advice around the testing protocol and the period of restricted movements required for those that have had their booster and those that have yet to get their booster.

It said that once implemented, it is expected that the HSE will be registering and distributing antigen test kits to up to 11,000 people per day, which is an expected increase of 7,000 a day on the number of test kits currently being distributed.
