Another 1,173 new cases of Covid-19 have been recorded in Ireland this afternoon.
That's the highest daily total since the end of January. As of 8am today, 79 COVID-19 patients are hospitalised, of which 23 are in ICU. A pilot process will begin this month to help evaluate the use of rapid antigen tests to identify Covid 19. It's being rolled out by the HSE, working with a number of government departments, to discover how the tests might be used more widely in third-level and childcare settings. Staff and students at five further and higher education sites in Dublin, Cavan, Mayo and Galway will take part - along with staff in childcare facilities across the East, Northeast and West.
