The number of people in Irish hospitals with covid-19 appears to be decreasing, and reflects a European trend where the World Health Organisation said cases dropped by 18% in the last month.
Up to Friday there were 376 patients in hospitals with covid-19, including 13 admitted to intensive care units. Numbers had reached over 400 in recent weeks.
