Anyone with flu-like illness is asked to contact a GP or pharmacist

The Midlands Regional Hospital in Mullingar is extremely busy due to a high number of people attending with flu and other respiratory illnesses.

Visitors are advised to only attend the facility if absolutely necessary and to not bring children, to limit the spread of infection.

Anyone with flu-like illness is also asked to contact a GP or pharmacist, rather than present at the Emergency Department.

Management is apologising for the inconvenience to patients and their families.
