Dr Ronan Glynn, Deputy Chief Medical Officer, said: "While the low number of cases reported today may be attributable to a weekend effect, it is nevertheless very welcome and represents the lowest number of cases reported on a single day since mid-December.
"While we continue to make good progress in Ireland, globally in the past week, the number of cases of COVID-19 has increased for the first time in seven weeks.
"We must not allow this virus the opportunity to do the same here.
"Please hold firm to the public health advice and together we can continue to protect and build on the progress we have made over the last two months".
