Secret super-spreader events drive high levels of new Covid infections

“There’s a lot of testing around it now and there will be knock-on tentacles,” said Dr Fallon. “It’s early days but source investigation might uncover what you might call super-spreader events; an event like a party or people who have been to a shebeen or a big household gathering. “I think we are missing that currently. I don’t think people volunteer that [information], but we probed and asked. I think that is the advantage of what the contact tracers are doing now.” Plans for contact tracers to identify the source of Covid-19 outbreaks in the community came into practice on Wednesday of last week after several months of delay.

Coronavirus Ireland: Enhanced contact tracing to uncover secret super-spreader events driving new Covid infections

Enhanced contact tracing will aid in the uncovering of secret ‘super-spreader events’, such as family parties and social gatherings, which are fuelling the stubborn levels of Covid infection. The new regime of tracing cases back seven days is finding ‘missing links’ explaining why infection numbers are not falling faster. Dr Una Fallon, Director of Public Health, HSE Midlands, said the new process, which was added to the national contact-tracing protocol just last week, would help reveal previously hidden information. It has already alerted public health in her area to a positive case who had been at a family party involving around 15 people.

Four new pop-up Covid test centres open nationwide

The pop-up hubs will operate for seven days in the Dublin locations and for five in all the others, except for the centre in Ballinasloe that will only be running for three days. The tests are free for anyone over the age of 16 and anyone living within 5km of a centre is being encouraged to attend. As of the latest Covid-19 figures, Co Offaly remains the county with the highest infection rate in the country. It is followed by Donegal and then Dublin. In Tullamore, the 14-day incidence rate stands at 823 per 100,000 population. However, as it has a walk-in test centre for people without symptoms more people are being tested for Covid-19 than in other parts of the country.
