  3. ^ Killeen returned to work in April and was reported as having recovered.[38] However, she said in late June she was "still on the long road to full recovery".[39]
  4. ^ The singer—who lived part-time in Kinvara, in the southwest of County Galway, and married a woman from County Donegal—died in hospital in Nashville, Tennessee, on 8 April 2020. His wife also contracted the virus but recovered.[43][44]
  5. ^ The cartographer—who wrote on the west of Ireland, settled in the Aran Islands and was a member of Aosdána and the Royal Irish Academy—died in hospital in London, England, on 3 April 2020, two weeks after his wife.[47]
  6. ^ The former Offaly manager—who led the team to the 1969 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final—died in Dublin on the morning of 7 April.[50]
  7. ^ The hurler—who won the 2017 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship with Galway—tested COVID-19 positive in the U.S., where he was working as a coach with the New York team. His fiancée also tested positive. Both recovered. Their diagnoses were announced on 13 April after both had recovered.

  30. ^ The outbreak in the Tyrone football squad twice delayed the 2021 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship semi-final against Kerry at Croke Park. Morgan later disclosed that he was one of the players who had contracted COVID-19, though he mistook his symptoms for hayfever.[105]
  31. ^ West Bromwich Albion Football Club announced on 25 August that Republic of Ireland international association football player Robinson had tested positive for COVID-19 ahead of his club's 2021–22 EFL Cup second round game against Arsenal.

  37. ^ Micheál Martin's test result was announced on 16 March while he was at an event in Washington being held for St Patrick's Day. This meant Martin could not personally meet President of the United States Joe Biden at the White House as planned the next day. Biden and Martin met virtually instead, with Martin isolating in Blair House. Martin said he would chair the next cabinet meeting from the Irish embassy in Washington.[123][124]
  38. ^ The minister had been due to travel to Canada for St Patrick's Day. He later confirmed that a positive test had prevented him from doing so. His period of isolation elapsed in time for him to sit on the "VIP lorry" at the parade in Buncrana.[125]
  39. ^ Rock and his wife tested positive for COVID-19 in March 2022. Rock's wife later died in the intensive care unit of a Dublin hospital.[126][127]

I eventually ended up in intensive care, unable to draw oxygen, and was diagnosed with some exotic new strain of the coronavirus for which there was no cure, of course. I was put into a medically induced coma, none of which I remembered...I was in hospital 20 minutes from my home in County Kerry, Ireland...
