An infectious disease expert's warning further deaths from Covid-19 are 'inevitable' as case numbers continue to rise.

A further 138 cases were recorded yesterday.
68 were in Dublin, 13 in Limerick, 9 each in Galway and Kildare,  5 each in Wicklow, Wexford and Cork and 24 more spread across 14 other counties.
There were no further deaths linked to the virus in the latest data.
