Ireland’s Covid cases and resulting hospitalisations are on the rise again as the summer months approach and an air of worry is being felt among health officials.
On Friday, Minister Stephen Donnelly said his department was keeping a watchful eye on the recent rise in Covid-19 hospitalisations, but reassured the public that plans are in place for another wave.
Professor Kingston Mills told RTÉ Radio 1 that "it’s not just in Ireland" seeing a jump in infection rates, as the UK, Portugal, and Germany deal with a similar rise over the past couple of weeks.
