People across Carlow and Kilkenny with illnesses such as the flu and norovirus are being asked to keep emergency departments free for emergencies.
The HSE in the South East are urging the public to help prevent the spread of viruses by steering clear of hospitals and GP surgeries, so as not to infect others who may be very unwell already.
