The HSE is making a fresh appeal to the people of Clare not to become complacent, amid fears of a surge in covid-19 cases in the new year.
Public Health Officials believe daily case numbers have hit a low point and will not fall further this side of Christmas, with the Chief Medical Officer warning that a significant surge of Covid-19 cases may be inevitable in January.
The HSE’s Director of Public Health in the Mid-West has congratulated the people of Clare for continuing to comply with public health advice, with case numbers remaining in single digits for the past three weeks.
Dr Mai Mannix has been telling Clare FM’s Fiona Cahill that she believes the situation will vastly improve once the vaccine comes on stream, but she insists it’s vital that people don’t let their guard down in the meantime.
