Cluster of Covid-19 cases identified after over 30 young people travelled to Kerry to socialise

Leaflets which form part of the public awareness campaign for Covid-19.

A cluster of Covid-19 cases among a large group of young people who “partied” in rented accommodation in Killarney last weekend is being investigated by public health authorities, GPs have been advised.

Over 30 people travelled from “different parts of the country” to Killarney and stayed a number of days together, according to a letter sent to general practitioners throughout the region yesterday.
