Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly confirmed today that NPHET has been working on a colour-coded system for managing COVID-19 in Ireland.
The plan will use four colours, ranging from blue to red, to indicate the severity of the situation in different counties and regions.
The new colour codes will replace the Government's current system of phases.
Priscilla Lynch, Clinical Editor of the Medical Independent, joined us for our daily coronavirus update to outline how this would work.
Donall O'Keeffe, CEO of the Licensed Vintners Association, also spoke to us about seeking a financial support package for pubs.
