Coronavirus in Ireland. The highest level of epidemic threat. Restrictions

However, as the number of infections detected has grown faster and faster since then, ministers have now taken a more drastic step. According to the scale adopted in mid-September, risk level five means a return to the same restrictions that were introduced at the end of March with the exception of schools that are to remain open – but the decision on this matter may change depending on the development of the situation.

Back to restrictions

Open-air meetings with members of one other household will be allowed, but only within 5 kilometers of the home. Works on construction sites may still be carried out, sports games may be held at professional level, but only without the participation of the public, and up to 25 people may be present at weddings until the end of the year.

The other restrictions provided for at the fifth level remain unchanged, i.e. all stores except those selling key goods must be closed, as well as service outlets. Pubs, bars and restaurants may only operate on a take-away or delivery system.

–

People should stay within 5 kilometers from home and work remotely if possible. It is forbidden to meet people from other households in closed rooms. All museums, galleries, gyms and recreational facilities will be closed. Temples will be open only for individual prayers, and hotels only for guests who come for essential business matters.

Severity level five is expected to run for six weeks, although the situation will be reviewed after four weeks. The aim is to contain the spread of the epidemic so that it is possible to return to level three by the end of November and to level two before Christmas.

On Monday afternoon, the health ministry said 1,035 new infections had been detected in the last 24 hours. This is 252 less than the record balance from the previous day, but it means the sixth consecutive day when the number of infections is over a thousand, and that the total number has exceeded 50,000. There was no new death, however. The total epidemic in Ireland now stands at 50,993 cases and 1,852 deaths.
