179 people with the virus are receiving treatment this morning, which is 21 percent lower than last week.
Overnight, there were 47 patients with the infectious disease in ICU.
Covid cases in midlands hospitals have remained stable over the weekend, with 12 people being treated for the virus today, including five in ICU.
That includes five patients in ICU - two each in Tullamore and Portlaoise and one in Mullingar Regional Hospital.
