Huge Covid milestone for Ireland with PCR test centres to close this week amid new advice

Ireland has reached a major milestone since the Covid-19 pandemic began and shut the country for months on end as PCR test centres officially close this week.

The advice for the general public will also change from Thursday, March 30, as Covid-19 testing is no longer recommended for the vast majority of people, according to the HSE.

In line with this updated advice, community testing centres across the country and the self-referral portal for ordering PCR tests will no longer be required, and both will be shut down.
