There have been 1,828 new cases of COVID-19 reported in Ireland on Saturday.
The latest available figures show there are 198 patients in hospital with the virus - 33 of these are in ICU.
The Department of Health says the case numbers may change due to a future data update.
It brings the five-day moving average of new cases to 1,486.
People who have yet to receive a first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine are being encouraged to attend a walk-in vaccination clinic this weekend.
There are over 20 in operation around the country today, with a similar number taking place tomorrow.
Anyone over the age of 16 can walk in and get a Pfizer dose - the head of the HSE, Paul Reid, says an 87 year old woman is the oldest person to attend a clinic so far.
87 year old Mary O'Connor drove to our walk in centre today in Sligo to receive her 1st vaccination. The oldest person to be vaccinated so far through the walk in centres. It was a pleasure and moving to meet Mary and to hear many of her lovely life experiences @HSELive pic.twitter.com/tSZbB0MuNK — Paul Reid (@paulreiddublin) August 7, 2021
