There are 43 patients with Covid-19 being treated in intensive care units in hospitals around Ireland today, down two from yesterday.

The total number of people in hospital with the virus today stands at 981, as of 8am. This is a drop of 37 on yesterday's figure.

The latest figures come as the Covid Special Envoy for the World Health Organization said that the pandemic is not over despite many people thinking that we can just get on with life now. "It's not finished," Dr David Nabarro said on RTÉ's Morning Ireland programme. "There are ways we can live [with it], but they do require us just paying attention to what we know about the virus as it is now. " He said that about every two or three months there are surges, often associated with a shift in the actual makeup of the virus and the new strains "will be able to dodge past some of the protection that we get from vaccines, and so that means that, some of us at least, will get several Covids’ perhaps even in a year."

Ohio FBI shooting: Gunman reportedly threatened agency following raid of Trump's home
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A gunman who died in a shootout after trying to get inside the FBI’s Cincinnati office appeared to have posted calls on social media for FBI agents to be killed and for people to take up arms and "be ready for combat" in the wake of the search at Donald Trump’s home, a law enforcement official said.Federal investigators are examining social media accounts they believe are tied to the gunman, 42-year-old Ricky Shiffer, and posts that urged violence after the FBI search at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, according to the official, who was not authorized to discuss the investigation publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.At least one of the messages on Trump’s Truth Social media platform appeared to have been posted after Shiffer tried to breach the FBI office. It said: "If you don’t hear from me, it is true I tried attacking the F.B.I."Another posted on the same site earlier this week from @rickywshifferjr included a "call to arms" and urged people to "be ready for combat" after the search.Authorities also are looking into whether Shiffer, a Navy veteran, had ties to far-right extremist groups such as the Proud Boys, the official said.Shiffer was armed with a nail gun and an AR-15-style rifle when he tried to breach the visitor screening area at the FBI office Thursday, according to the official.
