    Age 37 received first dose July 8, received text for second appointment 1 August so a bit less than the full four weeks. Helix/Swords

    My missus and I have the first jab at the same day (we are same age), but we are planning to get the second jab on different days (and I believe it is the sensible decision). Many people have quite some side effects for up to 2 days, so it would be good for the one person to be able to take care of the other in case it happens (and also someone has to take care of kids and walk the dog etc).

    Can I ask was it today you got the text? I see some centres are scheduling up to the 5th so I wonder if Swords are a bit behind and maybe I'll get my text tomorrow 🤞

    This is why I think there should be a way to choose your date . My son is in Canada and for that very reason left five days between his vaccine and his wifes .They had no one to mind the baby if both were unwell after it .They could book online once there age group came up

    Registered with the HSE, once it opened.

    But found out my GP could give me, my vaccine sooner.

    Given that the HSE has a valid email from me, resulted in my cert being issued on the same day as my second dose, as to being posted.

    The HSE portal was also updated to show my status as fully vacninated.

    Great to see GP systems/ HSE systems working so together.

    First shot: 1st July

    Second shot: 28th July

    Type: Pfizer

    Second jab done today, all arranged via my local GP.

    Age: 35

    First: 30/06

    Second: 29/07

    Type: Pfizer



  • Registered Users Posts: 353 ✭✭Sam W


    Got the appointment for second jab on 5 Aug in Citywest, 18 days after the first one. Age 30.



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,758 ✭✭✭cython


    The Pfizer advice was never for "at least 28 days" between doses, and their own programme for staff and their household members was operating on a 21 day interval (I got my vaccine through this). The HSE and/or NIAC set the interval to the longer 28 days, I assume to conventiently co-term the interval with that of Moderna and make for similar management of the system and second dose appointments.

    Today I got the text for my second dose of Pfizer at the Aviva, scheduled for the 4th of August. 19 days after the first vaccine. It’s a lot sooner than I’d expected and I’m delighted! :-)

    hi guys , got my first Pfizer jab in punchestown on the 16/07 (33yrs old) and I’m awaiting a call for my second . I’m due to fly to the uk and back on 13/14th august. Should I ring the HSE and advise of this if I don’t hear back in the next few days of my appointment? Would they be able to push it forward to ensure I can get my vaccine cert on time? From what I understand it won’t be active until 7 days after my second jab.


    any advise much appreciated cheers

    travelled up to citiwest from limerick (on holidays) for my 2nd jab appointment this morning and my wife came with me hoping they would vaccinate her even though her appointment was tomorrow morning. Jabbed us both, a relief we don’t have to do the 400km round trip again tomorrow!
