A total of 554 people have tested positive for COVID-19 in Northern Ireland in the past two weeks.

Localised restrictions are being introduced for Belfast and Ballymena from Monday to reduce social contacts between households.
The new restrictions take in all postcodes in the Belfast City Council area as well as BT28 and BT29 and the town of Ballymena and the BT43 postcode. Residents in these areas are being asked to limit movement between households and anyone living in the impacted areas is asked to avoid unnecessary travel outside of them. People from outside the restricted areas can still travel into Belfast for shopping and eating out, while keeping with social distancing.
