COVID-19: Finally Good News From Ireland In Nine Weeks

Ireland recorded no new deaths from the coronavirus for the first time since March 21.

Prime Minister Leo Varadkar called it a “significant milestone”, adding on Twitter: “This is a day of hope. We will prevail.”

The announcement came one week after Ireland, which has suffered 1,606 deaths from 24,698 infections, began to ease lockdown measures that had been in place for nearly two months.
