The period of isolation for positive Covid-19 cases in Ireland has been reduced from 14 days to 10 days.
New HSE guidance issued to GPs today means you only have to isolate for the 10 days provided you are fever-free for the last five.
This only applies to people who get the virus in the community and doesn't count if you are arriving from non-Green list countries.
Close contacts also must continue to restrict movements for 14 days.
The move comes a day ahead of the Government's Living with Covid plan being released which will give a guide as to how Ireland will look in the next eight months.
But first further restrictions on household gatherings and possibly even the delayed reopening of "wet pubs" are both on the cards for Dublin.
One of the key measures to deciding on further restrictions will be the rate of confirmed cases per 100,000 population over the last 14 days.
And this has skyrocketed in Dublin recently, now standing at 89.1 in the latest figures released by the Health Protection Surveillance Centre.
The rate is even higher in certain parts of the capital, with Dublin North West reporting an incidence of 116.0, followed by Dublin South East on 107.5.
