A Galway food company has introduced on-site PCR Covid tests for its staff and visitors. Test results are available in about one hour

All staff at the Galmere food production facility are tested once a week, and all visitors entering the premises undergo the process too.Polymerase Chain Reaction, or PCR, tests are seen as the best way of detecting the presence of Covid-19. The HSE says they are the most reliable tests available, because they look at the genetic material of the virus.

Costing in the region of €75,000, it ensures that staff are regularly screened for Covid and is seen as offering an extra layer of protection for both workers and customers. Some staff members have been allocated to carry out the swabbing, with others trained to analyse the samples. Chief Executive John Casey said the move to provide in-house PCR tests followed a number of changes over the last twelve months to try and safeguard staff during the pandemic.
