18 more Covid-related deaths have been recorded, with most of those having taken place in November.
Health officials have also confirmed 269 cases including just 8 cases in Cork
Professor of Health Systems, Anthony Staines, says nations that have managed to keep Covid levels down have quarantined international travellers:
Because the big challenge for us all is quarantine at the airport. Most countries that have successfully brought this virus down have compulsory quarantine at the airports, you come into the airport, you go to your hotel. You stay in your hotel for 14 days. Then you go about your business, that's probably something we should be doing all across Europe, but it's certainly something we should be thinking about here."
