The clinic will be open seven days a week from 8am to 4pm for drive-through testing and walk ins.
If you need to get tested, the site at Taree showground will not be open from tomorrow so please head to the new site at Bushland drive, Myall Lakes MP Stephen Bromhead said.
Meanwhile, Rapid Antigen Home Testing (RAHT) is being expanded to schools to reduce the time students and staff spend away from school if they are a close contact of a positive case.
