Leinster counties urged to 'double down' on Covid-19 prevention

Perception that virus is Dublin-centred is wrong, said Dr Ronan Glynn

Acting chief medical office  Ronan Glynn, said that, over the past two weeks, 226 cases have arisen in the three Leinster counties, almost half of all cases in Ireland in that time.

GPs in the three counties have been written to in order to highlight concerns, Dr Glynn said.
