Health officials have announced a further 3,342 PCR-confirmed cases of COVID this afternoon.

Meanwhile, 4,352 positive antigen tests were registered on the HSE portal yesterday.

This morning, there were 653 patients with COVID in Irish hospitals – up 60 on this day last week.

There were 56 in intensive care, which is eight fewer than last week.

Since PCR testing was restricted for the under-40s in mid-January, the National Public health Emergency Team (NPHET) has reported positive antigen test results uploaded to the HSE portal alongside PCR-confirmed results.

When both are included, the five-day moving average is now 6,725
