DUBLIN, Sept 15 (Reuters) - Ireland on Tuesday set out new
rules for its quarantine-free travel "green list", saying
visitors from a list of countries with a COVID-19 infection rate
of under 25 cases per 100,000 over the past two weeks can skip a
14-day quarantine.
Previously the green list was made up of countries with
lower infection rates than Ireland, but the government stopped
updating the list when cases in Ireland surged to 45 cases per
100,000 over the past 14 days.
Prime Minister Micheal Martin said that the government would
soon publish a new list and would then adopt a coordinated EU
system of travel restrictions that he said would be approved an
EU General Affairs Council meeting on Oct. 13.
