A further 9 people with Covid-19 have died here, bringing the death toll to 1,691.
Latest Department of Health figures show 9 new cases of the virus have also been confirmed, meaning there have been 25,215 confirmed cases since the outbreak first began in late February.
Today's figures are up on the 4 deaths announced yesterday, but the increase was expected, due to a lag in the reporting and processing of some cases at weekends.
There are no new cases in Waterford - as of midnight on Sunday the total remained at 154.
No new Covid 19 deaths have been recorded in Northern Ireland for the third day in a row, meaning the death toll stands at 537.
Dr. Tony Holohan, Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health, said; "While today we report 9 new cases and the situation continues to improve in both Ireland and across Europe, the World Health Organisation has noted that now is not the time to ‘take the foot off the pedal’ and that countries need to continue to work hard to avoid complacency and promote solidarity."
Dr. Ronan Glynn, Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Department of Health, said; "Contact tracing & public health surveillance are essential elements in our response to COVID-19. Public Health doctors and their teams have quietly undertaken an extraordinary effort to contact trace over 25,000 COVID-19 cases to date. Going forward, we can all assist them in their work by limiting the number of people we meet and keeping a log of the people we interact with every day."
