Covid-19 incidence rate in every county in Ireland as several see worrying rise

Four counties are being considered for further restrictions as the number of Covid-19 cases continues to rise across the country.

Donegal and Dublin are by far the worst two hit and have already entered Level 3 of lockdown restrictions.

But sadly for locals, figures in both counties are going in the wrong direction and either could be the first to enter Level 4, though the Government will not make such a move lightly.

Meanwhile, Monaghan, Roscommon, Galway and Cork are being closely monitored by the National Public Health Emergency Team, which is meeting today to discuss possible restrictions in certain areas.

If it believes another county needs lockdown measures, it will issue advice to Government, which ultimately has the final say.

In the meantime, here's how things are looking in each county.
