He also banned mass gatherings of more than 100 people indoors and 500 people outdoors.
However, no such ban implies to Northern Ireland.
Former Armagh GAA All-Ireland winner Justin McNulty said: “Lines on map mean nothing to coronavirus. We now need an all island response and decisive leadership from our executive with social distancing and lock down measures employed now.
“Not just to protect ourselves but people in our community who have a greater risk from COVID-19 than us.”
There are currently 18 confirmed cases of coronavirus in Northern Ireland but there has been no official update today as of yet.
