The free ‘Pop up, walk-in/no appointment necessary’ Covid-19 test centre in Buncrana is to be extended for another week.
Located at Nailors Row Car Park, behind Cockhill Health Centre (F93 PW65), it will be open from 11am to 7pm daily until Thursday July 27 (under 16’s must be accompanied).
The HSE established the facility in the first week of July owing to concerns over an increase in cases of Covid-19 cases recorded in the Inishowen area.
The HSE is encouraging people in communities throughout the north of the county to avail of this temporary facility in Buncrana. People can avail of testing if they have concerns about Covid19, whether or not they have symptoms.
The HSE reminds everyone at this time of ‘the basics’ in protecting one’s self and others from the spread of COVID-19. In particular, if you have symptoms, even if they are mild, do not attend work or social gatherings and get tested for Covid19 – see https://www2.hse.ie/conditions/covid19/preventing-the-spread/
