The Department of Health has been notified of 26,122 new cases of Covid-19, the highest daily number since the pandemic began.
The previous highest was 23,817 on 6 January.
There are 917 people in hospital, down 19 since yesterday, of whom 83 are in ICU, down one.
In Northern Ireland, five patients who previously tested positive for Covid-19 have died and another 3,458 positive cases of the virus have been notified by its Department of Health.
It comes as a leading health expert said the surge in the Omicron wave of infection is likely to be next week.
Dr Mary Favier, who is Covid-19 Adviser to the Irish College of General Practitioners, encouraged parents and guardians of five to 11-year-old children to make sure they get vaccinated.
Those who have been registered with the Health Service Executive will be offered an appointment for their first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine from today.
Registration for this cohort opened on Monday.
The vaccination programme is already under way with children who have a health condition that puts them at risk of severe illness from the virus or live with someone who is at higher risk from Covid-19.
