Restrictions
The number of cases in Dublin has been an area of concern over the past number of weeks as the county's 14-day incidence rate per 100,000 people on August 13th was 89.1.
Dublin's incidence rate is the highest in the country, followed by Limerick and Leitrim with 65.7 and 65.5 respectively.
Earlier today, Tánaiste Leo Varakdar hinted that restrictions may be on the way for Dublin, to try and halt the spread of the virus in the capital.
The increased restrictions are expected to be announced tomorrow, as the Government is due to announced their 'Living with Covid-19' plan.
The plan will include guidelines for workers returning to offices, international travel ans sporting events.
A scale from one to five will also be adopted to represent the level of restrictions, with five representing the most severely restricted conditions.
It is thought that most counties will be placed on level two, while Dublin may find itself higher up the scale.
