The figures come as six States were removed from Ireland’s mandatory hotel quarantine list.

There have been 381 new cases of Covid-19 reported in Ireland.

The figures released from the Department of Health on Saturday did not contain information regarding deaths related to Covid-19.

The Department of Health’s statement said that the number of daily cases may also change due to future data validation.

110 Covid-19 patients are hospitalised, of which 42 are in ICU.

Earlier on Saturday, Health Minister Stephen Donnelly removed six States from Ireland’s mandatory hotel quarantine list.

The States were Andorra, Georgia, Kuwait, Mongolia, Nigeria and Puerto Rico.

All travellers into Ireland must have a negative pre-departure Covid-19 test and those from States not on the mandatory hotel quarantine list must observe a home quarantine.
