There are no Covid-19 PCR tests available in 18 counties across the country, including Kildare.
The HSE's self-referral portal shows zero availability in counties including Carlow, Dublin, Meath, & Wicklow.

3,666 cases of COVID-19 were detected yesterday, while 638 patients with the virus are in hospital - including 130 in ICU.
Social Democrats co-leader Roisin Shortall says while testing capacity has increased in recent days, it's still not meeting demand:
