A further fall back in the spread of Covid-19 and another reduction in cases is down to renewed efforts from the public to keep the virus at bay, Health Minister Stephen Donnelly has said.

Mr Donnelly also outlined the work done to put a winter plan together to fight the virus and insisted the scale of this was unlike anything seen previously.
