The Irish Rugby Football Union have confirmed that the PCR testing of players and staff at Connacht and Ulster produced zero positive results.
The statement comes after 118 players and staff were tested, by Cork based company Advanced Medical Services, in Connacht and Ulster on Wednesday.
The staff and players have been cleared to access their respective High Performance Centres from Monday, June 29. From Monday all four provincial senior squads will be back training in modified groups.
To date there have been 258 tests conducted across the professional player and staff group and zero positive tests reported.
