Meanwhile 360 new cases on Saturday and 331 new cases on Sunday brings the number of confirmed cases in the republic to 4,994.
Data released on Sunday - covering the cases reported up until midnight on Friday - shows that 165 cases have been admitted to intensive care.
Some 1,163 of the confirmed cases (26%) are associated with healthcare workers, while 236 clusters involving 903 cases have been identified across the country.
A range of other measures have also been announced to help homes deal with the crisis.
Each nursing home will also be identifying a COVID-19 lead, and coronavirus testing will be prioritised for staff.
The HSE will also provide access to Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), expert advice and training.
It comes amid concerns over the quality of some of the protective equipment that has been received from a Chinese supplier over the past week.
Mr Reid said the Executive has told the supplier - who has been 'cooperating with the HSE' over the issue - that it does not want any more of the equipment that isn't suitable in the next orders.
65% of the PPE received is useful, another 15% - mostly gowns - is acceptable as an alternative to a preferred product, while 20% is not suitable for use by healthcare workers here.
The shooting happened in broad daylight at Etna Drive in north Belfast shortly before midday yesterday.
The man who was shot is thought to be a Dublin criminal who had been told by gardaí that his life was in danger.
He is believed to be a suspect in the killing of Drogheda teenager Keane Mulready Woods - the 17-year-old who was abducted and killed earlier this year.
The theft took place in the early hours of yesterday morning at two separate banks in Dundalk.
The raiders also set two cars on fire outside both entrances to Dundalk Garda Station in an effort to stop gardaí responding to the robbery.
Suspects were subsequently intercepted the Garda Armed Support Unit but, following a chase, the suspects made their getaway over the border into Northern Ireland.
