Speaking on Thursday, acting CMO Ronan Glynn said: "We are continuing to see a slow growth of Covid-19 in Ireland. "The most effective action we can take to reduce the transmission rate of this virus is to reduce our number of close contacts. "If we do this and keep practicing the other safe behaviours by continuing to physical distance, avoid crowds, wash our hands, cover our coughs and sneezes, wear a mask where appropriate and download the Covid tracker app, we have a real chance of slowing the spread of the virus to where we want it to be." In the last 14 days, there have been 1535 confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the Republic of Ireland. This represents just over 5% of the total number of cases reported to date. The 14-day incidence is now at 32 cases per 100,000 population. https://twitter.com/RobOHanrahan/status/1299029838641147905?s=20
