Minister for Health Simon Harris has said the Ireland v Italy Six Nations game scheduled for Dublin next month should not go ahead due to the coronavirus outbreak in northern Italy
哈里斯先生說，如果有人從高危地區返回並且沒有任何症狀，只需查閱HSE網站。
他說，根據歐盟準則, 沒有進行自我隔離的建議。
哈里斯先生說，愛爾蘭有90例疑似病例，沒有一例對Covid-19呈陽性。
他說，他的部門正在擴大受影響地區的清單，包括日本，香港，新加坡，韓國，伊朗和意大利已經特別要注意的地區。
哈里斯表示，“整個歐盟內可能會有許多Covid-19病例”，但他補充說，“他滿意愛爾蘭目前的計劃, 感到很足夠。”
同時，愛爾蘭各地有許多中學的師生在期中假期前往意大利北部滑雪假期回來。
Mr Harris said the advice is that if someone has returned from an at-risk area and is displaying no symptoms, they should consult the HSE website.
He said there is no recommendation to self-isolate under EU guidelines.
Mr Harris said there have been 90 suspected cases of the virus in Ireland, none of which have tested positive for Covid-19.
He said his department is expanding the list of affected regions, to include Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, Iran and the regions in Italy that have already been highlighted.
There are “likely to be clusters of cases of Covid-19 throughout the EU”, Mr Harris said, but he added that he is “satisfied that plans currently in place in Ireland are sufficient”.
Meanwhile, students and teachers from a number of secondary schools across the country travelled to northern Italy for skiing holidays over the midterm break.

都柏林的一所學校及沃特福德的三所學校，說在學期中假期有學生參加學校意大利北部滑雪旅行。
學校正在尋求建議。
都柏林Goatstown山羊鎮的Mount Anville 安維爾山中學曾給父母寫信，建議任何免疫系統較弱的學生都應留在家中。
從那以後，沃特福德的一所學校，St Paul’s CBS被告知，由於學生位於距爆發中心約240公里的安多洛（Andolo），他們的學生或處於“低風險”狀態。
北愛爾蘭的三所學校也有到意大利北部的滑雪旅行，並已經將一些學生送回家進行自我隔離。

a school in Dublin has joined three schools in Waterford in saying that they had students abroad on school ski-trips over the midterm.
They are seeking advice after students returned from school ski trips to Northern Italy.
Mount Anville secondary school in Goatstown, Dublin wrote to parents to advise any students with a compromised immune system to be kept at home.
One of the Waterford schools, St Paul’s CBS, has since been advised that their students are likely to be “low risk” given they were in Andolo, some 240km away from the epicentre of the outbreak.
Three schools in Northern Ireland who also had students abroad on ski trips in northern Italy have sent some students home to self-isolate.
The Department of Foreign affairs has opened a dedicated phone line for anyone who has specific concerns regarding Irish citizens currently in any affected areas. The number is 01 613 1733
