Kildare has the highest 14-day incidence of Covid-19 in the country - overtaking Donegal.

A campaign has been taking place over the past couple of weeks in Donegal to attempt to bring down the rates of the virus, with the Health Minister Stephen Donnelly praising the community for their efforts.

Kildare now has 251 cases per 100,000 people.

The Donegal incidence has fallen by a fifth in the last seven days.

It's not all bad news though, the national rate is now 129 - down three percent on last week.
