National Public Health Emergency Team plans further Ebola response test

A major exercise is being planned to test the country's readiness in the event of an outbreak of Ebola.

The National Public Health Emergency Team says it will build on the successful exercise staged at the Mater Hospital in Dublin on Wednesday.

The NPHET has said that the threat of Ebola here is very low.

In the event and outbreak did occur the cases would be treated at the National Isolation Unit at the Mater Hospital - and at no other hospital.
