From Morning Report, 7:09 am on 28 January 2022

Teenagers who attended the Soundsplash Festival near Hamilton at the weekend say half their friends now have Covid-19.

Some say they have been told they have omicron and there are fears the event could be the first super-spreader of the new Covid-19 variant.

Yesterday five cases were confirmed from the three day festival over the weekend but more are expected.

Reporter Kirsty Frame spoke with some of them.
