The total number of deaths now stands at 1,738, with four previously confirmed deaths denotified today.

In a statement, Acting Chief Medical Officer Dr Ronan Glynn said: "A key element of our response to COVID-19 is ensuring that any person experiencing symptoms (cough, shortness of breath, fever, loss of sense of smell or taste) comes forward for testing.

"Please do not adopt a ‘wait-and-see’ approach, instead isolate yourself and contact your GP without delay.

“The National Public Health Emergency Team meets again tomorrow to continue its review of Ireland’s response and preparedness to COVID-19.”
