The HSE's Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC) has launched a new Covid-19 data hub to provide the latest figures relating to cases, deaths and outbreaks in Ireland.
There have been 108 Covid-related deaths in Ireland in the past seven days.
There has also been a total of 9,881 cases of the virus reported today - 5,268 confirmed through PCR tests and 4,613 positive antigen tests recorded through the HSE portal.
As of 8am, there are 631 Covid patients in hospital, down six in 24 hours. Of these, 62 are in ICU, down one on yesterday.
Speaking about the newly launched dashboard, Dr John Cuddihy, the HPSC's interim director says it will provide data on the coronavirus situation in a dynamic and timely manner.
The Epidemiology of Covid-19 Data Hub, a collaboration between the HPSC and University College Cork (UCC) will feature data published Monday to Friday.
The data will be updated every day at around 4pm, with outbreak data available from 4pm every Tuesday.
"As we move into the next phase of the pandemic, people really want to continue to see detailed information about Covid-19, how it is affecting their communities, and those around the country as a whole," Dr Cuddihy said.
"The new...data hub will be useful for a wide audience currently accessing HPSC Covid-19 data and offers regularly updated data at county and national level."
While the HPSC's data hub will have the latest information on Covid-19 outbreaks and cases, the data hub hosted by Gov.ie (found here) will continue to host information such as vaccination data, testing numbers and current hospital and ICU admissions.
