This brings the death toll there to 610 while the total number of positive cases now stands at 26,208.The latest figures follow new Covid-19 restrictions coming into force across Northern Ireland today.
The most severe level of restrictions, Tier 3, means people cannot socialise with anyone outside their household in any indoor and many outdoor settings. Pubs and bars must close unless they can operate as a restaurant. Areas in Tier 2 currently include London, Essex, Greater Manchester, Cheshire and West Yorkshire - with 25.2 million people affected by the restrictions.

Pubs and licensed restaurants in five health board areas - Greater Glasgow and Clyde, Lanarkshire, Ayrshire and Arran, Lothian, and Forth Valley - have been forced to close for all but takeaway service until 26 October.
