The Health Protection Surveillance Centre has today been notified of 4,620 confirmed cases of COVID-19.
As of 8am today, 571 COVID-19 patients are hospitalised, of whom 118 are in ICU.

Statistics on booster vaccinations are now available on the COVID-19 data hub.
#LayerUp to protect against COVID-19 infection. A range of posters and signs are available for you to use.
