A mum in self-isolation while she waits for Covid-19 test results has pleaded with everyone to self-isolate and drastically change their behaviour for the next two weeks. We can contain the spread of the virus, if we all pull together and act now,” she said. “We all need to do this as a matter of urgency so that we do not get the virus, or pass it on. That afternoon, she drove to a HSE clinic in Mahon where she was tested and sent home to self-isolate, and to expect test results within 48 hours. She said her condition has improved and she’s feeling stronger but she said the waiting time for test results must be reduced.
