There has been a surge of cases in the midlands region in the last two weeks.
There are renewed calls for increased Covid-19 testing at meat plants, after outbreaks prompted the localised lockdown.
People in Laois, Offaly and Kildare have been told to restrict their movements for the next two weeks following a surge in cases.
Laois Offaly Sinn Fein TD, Brian Stanley says the HSE, government and industry have questions to answer about failures to prevent clusters of cases at meat factories.
Pat O'Toole from the Irish Farmers Journal says bad clusters were always a possibility:
