Dublin's four local authorities have issued a plea to citizens in the capital to 'redouble' efforts to stop the spread of Covid-19.
The call was made in an open letter signed by the elected leaders of Dublin City Council, Dun Laoghaire/Rathdown, South Dublin and Fingal councils.
The Dublin Mayors and the chairperson of Dun Laogharie/Rathdown called on Dubliners to work together to lower case numbers and to reduce social contacts to limit the numbers being admitted to hospital.
Our four Dublin Mayors have come together with An Garda Siochana & the HSE to sign an open letter to the citizens of Dublin to encourage us all in our fight against #COVID19.

A radio and digital campaign has also been launched to change the behaviour of 15-34 year olds in Dublin towards the virus.
''We have got to view Covid as a dangerous enemy and work together to stop it sweeping through our communities and affecting the lives of our loved ones, neighbours, colleagues and friends'' the letter stated.
