This is the third time that a walk-in, ‘no appointment necessary’ asymptomatic test centre has opened at Tallaght Stadium.
According to the HSE, the walk-in test centres are for people who wish to get tested as part of efforts to identify the wider spread of Covid-19 in the community.
The free Covid-19 testing centre, which does not require referral from a GP, can be used by people over the age of 16.
The centre is for people who do not have symptoms of Covid-19 but would like to be tested, and who have not tested positive for Covid-19 in the last six months.
Those who attend must bring photo ID and provide a mobile phone number for results.
The HSE has asked people with symptoms of Covid-19 to not attend the walk-in test centre and to contact their GP for a test.
