Should There Be More Widespread Testing In Our Schools?

From today, staff and pupils at secondary schools in Northern Ireland will be offered Covid-19 tests. The lateral flow antigen tests will not be compulsory, but any staff or pupils who are eligible are being urged to take two tests a week. The Public Health Agency in the North say the aim of this rollout is to reduce the risk of the virus being transmitted in schools; so basically they are looking to make schools safer. But should the same be done in schools here? Our Newstalk Reporter Barry Whyte has been speaking to teachers and parents who think schools could be a lot safer and asks if more widespread testing should be the answer.  Listen and subscribe to The Pat Kenny Show on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and Spotify.      Download, listen and subscribe on the Newstalk App.     You can also listen to Newstalk live on newstalk.com or on Alexa, by adding the Newstalk skill and asking: 'Alexa, play Newstalk'.
