Dr Ina Kelly criticised those in the hospitality industry not complying with rules around Covid certs saying they need to "step up to the mark".

Over 7,000 cases of Covid-19 were reported over the weekend as the hospitality sector comes under increased scrutiny for not complying with public health rules.
