The Department of Health has been notified of a further 340 cases of Covid-19. The number of people in hospital being treated for the virus stands at 47, an increase of four since yesterday.
The number in ICU has risen two to 15 in that time. It brings the overall numbers of cases to have been confirmed since the star of the pandemic to 271,260.
The figures come as Taoiseach Micheál Martin earlier confirmed that the Cabinet will meet earlier than expected next week to decide on whether to ease restrictions from 5 July, including indoor hospitality.
Speaking on RTÉ's The Week in Politics, he said he was not in a position to name the date, and would not speculate on what the decision might be.
