Several holidaymakers from Ireland who have tested positive for coronavirus are facing problems in showing proof of a negative test or a certificate showing they have recovered from the virus, according to the Irish Mirror. Spain 's health system means it can be a challenge to access a negative test in order to fly home. Entry to Spain is permitted if tourists can show they are vaccinated against Covid-19, have recovered from the virus or have a negative test. A spokesperson for Ireland's Department of Foreign Affairs said they are "aware that there are a number of Irish citizens who cannot procure a negative test to return to Ireland". He added that Irish embassies in Spain have been receiving a lot of calls from Irish people abroad worried about this scenario.
