The University has closed some areas as a precaution and says the HSE will trace anyone who’s been in contact with the affected person.
Eibhlín has described it as ‘like a waiting game really’.
Meanwhile 13 people across the country have now tested positive for Covid 19.
They include four males from the east who’d returned from northern Italy, and two females in the west who’d been in contact with another confirmed case.
Health authorities still don’t know how a male patient at Cork University Hospital contracted the virus.
