The National Public Health Emergency team will make a call on Thursday on whether or not Level 3 is working.

 

The national 14 day incidence rate is now 167 per 100 thousand people, a 43 percent increase in the past week.

 

 

Chief Medical Officer Tony Holohan says Level 3 has had some impact in Dublin, where it's been in place for four weeks.

 

However, he says cases are beginning to grow in the capital again.
