The National Public Health Emergency Team will meet this morning to analyse the spread of Covid-19 across the country.

429 cases of the virus were reported yesterday, with one new death. 31 of the new cases were in Donegal, which has the highest Covid-19 incidence rate in the country at 204.2 per 100,000 people. That compares to a national average of 88.5.
