Dr Tony Holohan, Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health, said:
"The significant improvement in the profile of the disease is encouraging: the 14-day incidence of 152 cases per 100,000 is down by 51% compared to the previous two weeks.
"To maintain this positive trajectory, we need to remain vigilant to the highly infectious nature of this virus, which can easily spread from person to person through close contact and by social mixing. Our individual everyday choices to stay at home and keep our contacts to a minimum are vital to driving down the spread of COVID-19."
The COVID-19 Dashboard provides up-to-date information on the key indicators of COVID-19 in the community.
