HEALTH Minister Simon Harris said the closure restrictions that are put in place should be “low risk” when it comes to public health, but “high performance” from a social or economic point of view.
Covid-19’s death toll reached 571 with the total number of cases rising to 15,000, as new data indicates that Ireland may have passed the peak of the outbreak.

An additional 41 Covid-19 deaths were announced with 35 people killed in the east of the country, two in the northwest and four in the west.
The median age of those reported deaths is 83 years, with 23 of the female and 18 male victims, 35 reported to have underlying health conditions.
778 new cases of the virus were confirmed, bringing the total number of people infected here since the outbreak began to 14,758.
630 new cases were detected in Irish laboratories, while 148 confirmed cases came from a German laboratory tasked with examining a backlog of previous Covid-19 tests.
Ireland is expected to remain locked up until May 5, and Simon Harris said we are not close to contemplating life “after Covid-19.”
DO NOT WORRY
He said that early May would be a tense time and said that although the coronavirus appears to be being phased out, things “could still go wrong for this country,” reports RTE News.
The lifting of the Irish restrictions on Covid-19 will happen “slowly and in a controlled manner,” said the chairman of expert advisory group Covid-19.
Cillian De Gascun said some companies may open at reduced capacity, but the company will not immediately return to what it was, as the restrictions will be gradually removed.
Dr. De Gascun said some nonessential workers may return to their workplace, but did not say what industries it might include.
And Ireland’s “hard work” in the fight against Covid-19 has “flattened the curve,” but each number remains a “real person,” a leading doctor warned.
Dr. Liam Glynn of the University of Limerick tweeted, “Everyone’s hard work has flattened the curve + has ensured that we still have enough beds in our hospitals for those who need them, but each number is a real person. + not just another statistic in our Covid story. “
Meanwhile, a new graph shows that daily deaths from Covid-19 in Ireland may have peaked ten days ago on April 7, and have nearly halved since then.
The number of deaths reported by the National Public Health Emergency Team every day is the number that is reported to them each day, rather than the numbers that actually died that day.
The new graph shows that daily deaths actually peaked on April 7 with 39 deaths recorded, though the figure reported that day was 36.
Dr. Holohan previously said that Ireland has flattened the curve so much that there is no peak.
And he said he is “hopeful” about May 5, the date the closure of Ireland was extended.
Minister Harris previously warned that Ireland was heading in a “dreadful and terrifying direction” before the blockade measures were introduced.
He said: “The appalling and terrifying direction we were heading in and that we saw in many other countries has so far been avoided thanks to your work and thanks to a public health-led approach to an unprecedented global crisis. But we have a lot more to do. Much more. “
ANALYZED TRAGEDIES
Of the 571 Covid-19 deaths in Ireland, 326 of those who died were men and 245 were women.
The age range of those who have died is between 23 and 105 and the average age of those who have lost their lives is 83.
Of the 571 patients who died, 330 had been admitted to the hospital and 46 to the ICU.
It occurs when nursing homes in Ireland criticized the Minister of Health for the government’s response to helping private nursing homes.
NHI CEO Tadgh Daly claims 5,000 residents are being excluded from government financial support because they are not part of the fair treatment scheme.
He said: “A significant proportion of people served in nursing homes are not fair treatment.
“These residents may be taking advantage of nursing home care services for transitional care, respite care, or rehabilitation, and other residents and their families pay with their own resources.

“It is understandable that the state has relied on nursing homes in the past few weeks to ensure that older people are removed from acute hospital settings. It is now excluding the costs involved in meeting their care needs during Covid-19. This is blatant discrimination. “
Harris defended the government’s response to nursing homes.
He said: “Unlike other countries that ignore the problem and refuse to count the problems and refuse to prove the problems, we are going to shed light on this sector.”
