Fine Gael TD for Limerick Kieran O’Donnell has said that he has contacted Taoiseach’s office and Health Minister Stephan Donnelly to correct what he says are inconsistencies about the Covid-19 incidence figures in Limerick, and in particular in the city of Limerick. .
MP O’Donnell says it appears that the numbers in Limerick for the past 2 weeks are falling.

Rep. O’Donnell said the city of Limerick in particular has been reviewed as an area that may face further restrictions. He said the Taoiseach said today that Limerick, along with the urban areas of Waterford, Cork and Galway in particular, are areas of concern as numbers are increasing in these areas.
He said that “the numbers in Limerick are declining, and tonight I have asked the Taoiseach office to address this inconsistency.
“The rate of Covid infection in Limerick, but particularly in Limerick city areas, is decreasing.
“Active evidence of infection, contact tracing, coupled with a change in behavior on the part of people in the city after a warning from Dr. Ronan Glynn about the increase in cases, I believe has resulted in the citizens of Limerick have the spread of the virus under control, and these figures will be recognized by the Taoiseach’s office. “
