This week, children around the country went back to school following six months away from the classroom, after the Covid-19 pandemic led to school closures in March.
For many, the return to school was an exciting time, catching up with friends and teachers, but some children were a bit nervous.
RTÉ's children's news programme, news2day, spoke to Acting Chief Medical Officer Dr Ronan Glynn to answer some of the questions children have about living with the virus now.
He said that we are still living with the virus, but we are dealing with it, and we have learned so much over the past six months, which is part of what has helped schools reopen.
