I tested positive yesterday for Covid and I'm meant to be flying out to Dublin on the 16th  February next week. I've been told I come out of isolation on the 15th providing I test negative on a lateral flow on the 14th and 15th. I have been told I will be locked out of my covid travel pass for 10 days from testing positive, however I have the pass saved to my phone before access was removed. Will this be enough to travel or will I need to get a private PCR test done beforehand as well?

    I don't know about whether your pass will be accepted. It takes a few days after the isolation period for the recovery certificate to appear. However any PCR test may still remain positive. I was told not to take a PCR for up to 3 months after recovery. It may be that a negative lateral flow test is sufficient.
  • I already downloaded the pass before the app locked me out, it has my vaccination history and the QR codes on it. I was hoping that would be enough. Also someone told me he was able to access his record's again on the app after 6 days because he came out of isolation early.
