Ireland needs "culture change" for infectious diseases.

"Athrú cultúir" ag teastáil in Éirinn maidir le galair thógálacha.

GPs have indicated that they are not receiving as many inquiries from the public about Covid-19 as they were until recently, and that this is a sign that the spread of the disease is slowing down.

Tá sé tugtha le fios ag dochtúirí teaghlaigh nach bhfuil siad ag fáil an oiread fiosrúchán ón bpobal faoi covid 19 agus a bhí go dtí le gairid, agus gur comhartha é seo go bhfuil leathadh an ghalair á mhoilliú.

However, Dr Nuala O'Connor from the Irish College of General Practitioners said that although Covid may not be as widespread as it used to be, there are still many cases of the disease in the community.

Ar a shon sin, dúirt an Dr Nuala O'Connor ó Choláiste Dhochtúirí Teaghlaigh Éireann cé go mb'fhéidir nach bhfuil Covid chomh forleathan agus a bhí go bhfuil a lán cásanna den ghalar sa phobal i gcónaí.

In her testimony, she urged people to follow the public health advice, especially if they have symptoms of the disease.

D'achainigh sí ar dhaoine ina fhianaise sin cloí leis an gcomhairle sláinte poiblí, go háirithe má tá siomptóim an ghalair orthu.

Dr O'Connor says that "culture change" is needed in this country in relation to infectious diseases.

Dar léis an Dr O'Connor go bhfuil "athrú cultúir" ag teastáil sa tír seo maidir le galair thógálacha.

After what Covid has revealed to them, she said, people in Ireland now need to make it clear that they have to stay at home and indeed it is bad manners to go out, go to school or go to work if there are symptoms. infected on them.

Tar éis a bhfuil nochta ag Covid dóibh, a dúirt sí, ní mór do dhaoine in Éirinn a thuiscint go soiléir feasta go gcaithfidh siad fanacht sa bhaile agus go deimhin go bhfuil sé drochmhúinte dul amach, dul ar scoil nó dul ag obair má tá siomptóim ionfhabhtaithe orthu.

In addition, Dr O'Connor advised people to get the booster of the Covid-19 vaccine and drew particular attention to people under the age of 24 who have only recently received the booster.

Ina cheann sin, mhol an Dr O'Connor do dhaoine an teanndáileog den vacsaín covid 19 a fháil agus tharraing sí aird go háirithe ar dhaoine faoi bhun 24 bliain nach bhfuil an teanndáileog faighte go trásta ach ag a leath acu.

The emergency powers of the Health Minister to combat Covid-19 officially came to an end at midnight last night.

Tháinig deireadh oifigiúil ag meán oíche aréir leis na cumhachtaí éigeandála atá ag an Aire Sláinte chun dul i ngleic le covid 19.

In line with the additional powers introduced at the start of the pandemic two years ago, the Minister for Health was allowed to put in place regulations to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

De réir na gcumhachtaí breise a tugadh isteach i dtús na paindéime dhá bhliain ó shin, bhí cead ag an Aire Sláinte rialacháin a chur i bhfeidhm le leathadh an choróinvíris a mhoilliú.

According to the latest figures, 1,472 people with Covid-19 were hospitalized nationwide this morning, 63 fewer than yesterday morning.

De réir na bhfigiúrí is deireanaí, bhí 1,472 duine le covid 19 in ospidéil ar fud na tíre ar maidin inniu, sin 63 níos lú ná maidin inné.

The Government has no intention of forcing people to wear masks.

Gan aon rún ag an Rialtas tabhairt ar dhaoine maisc a chaitheamh.

Taoiseach Micheál Martin has said that he does not believe that Covid's would be any better off if it were mandatory to wear masks in indoor public places again.

Tá sé ráite ag an Taoiseach Micheál Martin nach gcreideann sé go mbeimís aon cheo níos fearr as ó thaobh Covid de dá mbeadh sé éigeantach maisc a chaitheamh in áiteanna poiblí faoi dhíon arís.

On the contrary, the Taoiseach suggested that the current directive is to wear masks in those places but that a directive is not a compulsion.

Os a choinne sin, thug an Taoiseach le tuiscint gurb í an treoir atá ann faoi láthair maisc a chaitheamh sna háiteanna sin ach nach ionann treoir agus éigean.

Speaking on RTÉ, the Taoiseach stated that he was acting in accordance with the public health advice and said that he had discussed the matter with Chief Medical Officer Dr Tony Holohan.

Ag labhairt dó ar RTÉ, mhaígh an Taoiseach gur de réir na comairle sláinte poiblí a ghníomhaíonn sé agus dúirt go raibh an scéal pléite aige leis an bPríomh-Oifigeach Leighis an Dr Tony Holohan.

However, the Taoiseach's view does not match the views of doctors and nurses.

Ní thagann dearcadh an Taoisigh le léargas dochtúirí agus altraí ar an scéal, áfach.

They are calling on the Government to crack down on people to wear face masks again.

Tá siadsan ag éileamh ar an Rialtas le scaitheamh tabhairt ar dhaoine cumhdaigh éadain a chaitheamh arís.

Micheál Martin said that while the BA.2 variant of the coronavirus is more contagious than other previous variants it is not as harmful.

Dúirt Micheál Martin cé go bhfuil an t-athraitheach BA.2 ar an gcoróinvíreas níos tógálaí ná athraithigh eile a bhí ann roimhe seo nach bhfuil sé chomh hurchóideach leo.

However, he acknowledged that the spread of the virus is putting devastating pressure on the health system.

D'admhaigh sé, áfach, go bhfuil forleathadh an víris ag cur brú millteach ar an gcóras sláinte.

1,535 Covid-19 patients were hospitalized nationwide this morning, 75 fewer than yesterday.

1,535 othar covid 19 a bhí in ospidéil ar fud na tíre ar maidin inniu, sin 75 níos lú ná inné.

49 were in intensive care units.

Bhí 49 acu in aonaid dianchúraim.

It was also confirmed today that a € 2.2 million fund has been allocated to the Health Service Executive to provide care for people still with Covid-19 months after they contracted it.

Deimhníodh inniu chomh maith go bhfuil ciste €2.2 milliún lamháilte d'Fheidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte le cúram a chur ar fáil do dhaoine a bhfuil covid 19 fós orthu míonna tar éis dóibh é a tholgadh.

It is estimated that between 10% and 20% of people who contracted the disease still have Covid's symptoms despite being a long way from their first illness.

Meastar go bhfuil siomptóim Covid fós ar idir 10 faoin gcéad agus 20 faoin gcéad de dhaoine a tholg an galar ainneoin achar fada a bheith caite ó buaileadh tinn a chéaduair iad.

Electricity Ireland to increase energy charges from May Day.

Leictreachas Éireann le táillí fuinnimh a ardú ó Lá Bealtaine.

It was announced today that the energy company Electricity Ireland is to increase charges from 1 May.

Fógraíodh inniu go bhfuil an comhlacht fuinnimh Leictreachas Éireann le táillí a ardú ón 1 Bealtaine.

There will be a 24.8% increase in gas charges and a 23.4% increase in electricity charges, it said.

Ardú 24.8 faoin gcéad ar tháillí gáis agus ardú 23.4 faoin gcéad ar tháillí leictreachais a bheas i gceist, a dúradh.

The company considers this to be an increase of € 18.35 per month on the standard gas bill and an increase of € 24.80 per month on the standard electricity bill.

Dar leis an gcomhlacht gurb ionann sin agus ardú €18.35 sa mhí ar an ngnáthbhille gáis agus ardú €24.80 sa mhí ar an ngnáthbhille leictreachais.

Marguerite Sayers, the company's executive director, said she is acutely aware that these significant increases in energy charges will cause distress to households across the country.

Dúirt Marguerite Sayers, stiúrthóir feidhmiúcháin an chomhlachta, go dtuigeann sí go rímhaith go gcuirfidh na harduithe suntasacha seo ar tháillí fuinnimh, go gcurfidh siad anró ar theaghlaigh ar fud na tíre.

On the contrary, and unfortunately, she said, Electricity Ireland cannot fail to increase the charges to the public in return for the increase in wholesale charges over the past year.

Os a choinne sin, agus ar an drochuair, a dúirt sí, ní féidir le Leictreachas Éireann gan na táillí a ghearrtar ar an bpobal a ardú in éiric ar an ardú atá tagtha ar tháillí mórdhíola le bliain.

She indicated that the company had held back the increase for as long as possible in the hope that wholesale charges would fall again but that this had not happened and was unlikely to happen any time soon.

Thug sí le fios gur choinningh an comhlacht siar an t-ardú chomh fada agus ab fhéidir leo le súil go n-ísleodh táillí mórdhíola arís ach nár tharla sin agus nach dóichí go dtarlóidh go luath.

The decision announced by Electricity Ireland today since the company Energia announced last week that it is to increase charges by 15% from 25 April is not surprising.

Ní údar iontais é an cinneadh a d'fhógair Leictreachas Éireann inniu ó thug an comhlacht Energia le fios an tseachtain seo caite go bhfuil siadsan le táillí a ardú 15 faoin gcéad ón 25 Aibreán.

Two weeks ago, Bord Gáis confirmed its intention to increase its fees from 15 April.

Dhearbhaigh Bord Gáis coicís ó shin go bhfuil siad féin lena gcuid táillí a ardú ón 15 Aibreán.

That company's an increase of 39% on a standard gas bill and a 27% increase on a standard electricity bill.

Ardú 39 faoin gcéad ar ghnáthbhille gáis agus ardú 27 faoin gcéad ar ghnáthbhille leictreachais a bheas i gceist i gcás an chomhlachta sin.

"Military operations to be eased by Russians in parts of Ukraine".

"Oibríochtaí míleata le maolú ag Rúisigh in áiteanna san Úcráin".

Russian representatives today promised that Russian forces would slow down their military operations around the Ukrainian capital, Kiev, and other northern parts of the country, to allow peace talks to progress.

Gheall ionadaithe na Rúise inniu go maolódh fórsaí Rúiseacha a gcuid oibríochtaí míleata thart ar phríomhchathair na hÚcráine, Cív, agus i mbaill eile de thuaisceart na tíre sin, le deis a thabhairt dul chun cinn a dhéanamh i gcainteanna síochána.

The promise was given in the ongoing peace talks in Istanbul, Turkey.

Tugadh an gealltanas sna cainteanna síochána atá ar siúl in Iostanbúl sa Tuirc.

However, other areas in Ukraine that are still under intense fighting have not been mentioned, such as Mariupol in the southeast, Sumy and Kharkiv in the east and Kherson and Mykolaiv in the south.

Níor luadh limistéir eile san Úcráin a bhfuil dianchogaíocht ar siúl iontu i gcónaí, áfach, leithéidí Mariupol san oirdheisceart, Sumy agus Kharkiv san oirthear agus Kherson agus Mykolaiv sa deisceart.

Indeed, some analysts believe that the Russians have promised to slow down their operations in areas they have already lost control of.

Go deimhin, tá anailísithe áirithe den bharúil gur i gceantair a bhfuil smacht caillte acu orthu cheana féin a gheall na Rúisigh a gcuid oibríochtaí a mhaolú.

The Ukrainian representatives promised, for their part, that they would be willing to accept the country's neutrality and that they would never join a military alliance.

Gheall ionadaithe na hÚcráine, óna dtaobh siúd de, go mbeidís sásta glacadh le neodracht na tíre agus nach rachaidís i bpáirt go brách le comhghuaillíocht mhíleata.

However, in return for neutrality, other countries would sponsor Ukraine's security.

Mar sin féin, in éiric ar an neodracht, rachadh tíortha eile in urrraíocht ar shlándáil na hÚcráine.

The peace talks in Istanbul today also praised the long - standing status of the Donbass region.

Moladh sna cainteanna síochána in Iostanbúl inniu chomh maith an stádas a bheadh ag réigiún an Donbass i bhfad na haimsire a chaibidil.

Much of that region is controlled by paramilitary separatists loyal to Russia.

Tá cuid mhór den réigiún sin faoina smacht ag scarúnaithe paraimíleata atá dílis don Rúis.

In addition, the complex issue of Crimea's status and future was discussed.

Ina cheann sin, pléadh ceist aimhréidh stádas na Crimé agus a bhfuil i ndán dise.

The Ukrainians have called for a referendum to be held in their own country on any peace agreement and the Russians have stated that they will submit all the proposals discussed in Istanbul to their president Vladimir Putin.

Thug na hÚcránaigh le fios go gcaithfí reifreann a reáchtáil ina dtír féin ar aon chomhaontú síochána agus mhaígh na Rúisigh go gcuirfidís na moltaí ar fad a pléadh in Iostanbúl faoi bhráid a n-uachtaráin Vladimir Putin.

Policies on European dependence on Russian fuel announced.

Beartais faoi spleáchas na hEorpa ar bhreosla na Rúise fógartha.

The European Union and the United States have announced significant policies to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian fuel.

Tá beartais shuntasacha chun spleáchas na hEorpa ar bhreosla na Rúise a laghdú fógartha ag an Aontas Eorpach agus ag na Stáit Aontaithe.

The proposal was announced this morning by US President Joe Biden and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

D'fhógair Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe Joe Biden agus Uachtarán an Choimisiúin Eorpaigh Ursula von der Leyen an togra ar maidin.

At a News conference in Brussels, US President Joe Biden said that his Government would work closely with allies to ensure that the European Union needs the fuel supply it needs.

Ag comhdháil Nuachta sa Bhruiséil, dúirt Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe, Joe Biden go mbeadh a Rialtas ag obair go dlúth le comhghuaillí chun a chinntiú go mbeadh an soláthar breosla atá ag teastáil ón Aontas Eorpach ar fáil don Eoraip.

A task force is to be set up to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian fuel due to the war in Ukraine.

Tá tascfhórsa le bunú chun spleáchas na hEorpa ar bhreosla na Rúise a laghdú mar gheall ar an gcogadh san Úcráin.

The United States will work with partners to supply 15 billion cubic meters of liquefied natural gas to Europe this year.

European Union countries are under increasing pressure to block Russia's major energy exports in a bid to punish Russian President Vladimir Putin for his invasion of Ukraine.

Tá brú ag méadú ar thíortha san Aontas Eorpach cosc a chur ar phríomh-easpórtálacha fuinnimh na Rúise in iarracht pionós a ghearradh ar Uachtarán na Rúise Vladimir Putin as a ionradh ar an Úcráin.

The Department of Education is concerned about the quality of learning Irish.

Imní ar an Roinn Oideachais faoi cháilíocht fhoghlaim na Gaeilge.

A new report from the Chief Inspector of the Department of Education states that the quality of learning Irish in primary schools, with the exception of Gaelscoileanna and Gaeltacht schools, is a matter of great concern.

Deirtear i dtuarascáil nua ó Phríomhchigire na Roinne Oideachais gur údar mór imní cáilíocht fhoghlaim na Gaeilge i mbunscoileanna, seachas Gaelscoileanna agus scoileanna Gaeltachta.

Dr Harold Hislop's report is based on 10,000 inspections carried out in primary, post-primary, special schools and other education centers between the years 2016-2020.

Tá tuarascáil an Dr Harold Hislop bunaithe ar 10,000 cigireacht a rinneadh i mbunscoileana, iar-bhunscoileanna, scoileanna speisialta agus ionaid oideachais eile idir na blianta 2016-2020.

According to the report, the quality of the teaching and learning of Irish is still as good - on the whole - as it was before but difficulties are highlighted in English - medium schools, especially primary schools.

De réir na tuarascála, tá cáilíocht theagasc agus fhoghlaim na Gaeilge chomh maith i gcónaí - ar an iomlán - agus a bhí roimhe seo ach tarraingítear aird ar dheacrachtaí i scoileanna Béarla, go háirithe bunscoileanna.

It is pointed out that the quality of learning in these schools is not as positive for Irish as it is for English and Maths.

Cuirtear in iúl nach bhfuil cáilíocht na foghlama sna scoileanna sin chomh dearfach i gcás na Gaeilge agus atá i gcás an Bhéarla agus an Mhata.

With regard to post-primary schools, the report states that the quality of learning Irish is good or very good according to 76% of inspections.

Maidir le hiarbhunscoileanna, deirtear sa tuarascáil go bhfuil cáilíocht fhoghlaim na Gaeilge go maith nó an- mhaith de réir 76 faoin gcéad de na cigireachtaí.
