Trinity College Dublin has confirmed its second case of coronavirus on the campus.
The college says a student from the health sciences faculty has tested positive and is receiving the appropriate care.
It comes after the first death in Ireland from the virus - the elderly woman who was being treated in Naas General Hospital had underlying health issues.
43 cases of Covid-19 have now been confirmed in the republic after 9 more were confirmed last night.
The criteria for testing has now been broadened and medical professionals are being urged to test if a patient presents with any respiratory illness.
