Testing and tracing are the cause of the trouble we are in and why we must go back to level 5 again. Many sick people with other illnesses are suffering because they will have to wait longer. Doctors are out of flu injections. The Government is throwing loads of money at the HSE and there is loads of testing but no tracing. I will ask one serious question. I have asked it twice before and no one has come back to me. Is a member of NPHET involved in testing and is that person benefiting financially from that involvement? The main question is what company is involved and are proper procurement laws being adhered to in the securing of the testing kits?
