    Yes

    Does anyone know how long the new appointment takes? Is it pretty quick or you rejoin the queue?

    Just wondering with Pfizer are you given the date of your second appointment on the day of 1st or do you wait for text for 2nd appointment

    I got my first vaccine yesterday and got my appointment for the 13th given to me before I left the surgery.

    Any GP's doing the vaccinations are coining it in and I have to say from a personal perspective it was great as it meant not having to travel into the aviva (it's only from Bray but its still a pain).

    54, same town. Have heard nothing yet. Can’t figure out why younger folk have been getting their appts for Greystones. I’m guessing we’ll be sent to the Aviva so.

    Dr.Belton in the Townhall clinic is doing the vaccines I'm not sure if there are any other GP's in the Town doing it also. They were trucking through them when I was there yesterday.

    That's a problem for wife who has condition susceptible to blood clots and advised to get Pfizer... sounds messy, not sure what to do now. Where are you hearing this ?

    I was there today bringing someone up
    Theres a doctor onsite so you can ask for him
    They were announcing it at the door
    Shoreline also sent out a text last night to some

    She can reply to the notification text saying new & another appointment will be sent.
    They’re telling people in the queue every so often in Greystones this morning that Pfizer wasn’t delivered as planned but AZ is being offered instead. Most seemed happy enough to take the AZ.
    Although if your wife is compromised, maybe a word with her doctor to organise a vaccine at the surgery might be appropriate.

    I wonder you dont want Astra Zeneca or J&J, but would rather wait for pfizer, how long does it take to get another appointment for it?
    That will start to become a bigger issue when the under 50s start getting the choice.

    Got text today for appointment at Helix on 21 May

    Surely that’s for vaccinating Cohorts 4 & 7 - I don’t think GP's are vaccinating other patients on their lists.

    It shouldn't make that much of a difference. 40s are supposed to be offered an mRNA vaccine, they can only be offered AZ or J&J if nothing else is available. Given that we have a steady supply of Pfizer, this shouldn't be a major issue.

    The HSE can't actively choose to target the 40s with AZ and J&J.

    Registered 11th May.
    Text notification on 16h May for Pfizer vaccine on 18th (today) in Greystones.

    Got text yesterday informing that I may be offered AstraZeneca.

    At the centre I was offered choice of AstraZeneca today or come back in 2 to 5 days for Pfizer. I asked about jab intervals. 12 to 16 weeks for AstraZeneca, 4 weeks for Pfizer.
    I am now awaiting text with new appointment in next few days.

    Just on jab intervals, your considered vaccinated with AZ before your considered vaccinated with Pfizer, if that's your concern. 2nd dose of AZ is for longer term upkeep of efficiency

    Just a point to be made.

    When your considered vaccinated:
    Four weeks after their first dose of AstraZeneca.
    Two weeks after the one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
    Two weeks after their second dose of Moderna.
    One week after their second dose of Pfizer.

    Greystones running two hours behind schedule and massive Q, and yes they dont have the Pfizer they had people down for but are giving AstraZeneca...

    Are you saying they’ll allow people with one shot of AZ get vaccine passport after 4 weeks. I think a lot of younger people are put off AZ by perceived wait to be considered fully vaccinated.

    I thought that was just for the vaccine "bonus" in this country, which people probably don't care too much about, as opposed to the EU vaccine green cert, which it doesn't apply to .. currently?

    EU Green cert is still being ironed out, including these details

    EU details are still being ironed out pending final recommendations to the commission & discussion between member states. It's not ruled in or out. Some countries have indeed begun letting people in for non essential travel with 1 dose.

    This needs to be shouted from the roof tops
    The message is not getting through to people and so many are not aware of this
    I don’t understand why HSE are not putting it out there

    If people turning down AZ vaccine in Greystones today, then what do they do with the excess? Is it worth someone in their 30s going to Shoreline at the end of the day and chancing their arm (pun intended)?

    Would be great to hear that they are progressing as I have heard locally of delays.

    No they don't

    They've enough to cover their appointments today

    You can't just arrive up even if there were spares, local GPs etc would all be called

    No, your age alone prevents you from being offered AZ.

    Interesting. Even if one was paying attention (which I wasn't any more), you might not know what the 40s are supposed to be getting. Or not getting. I didn't know anything about when you were considered vaccination (someone else posted that).

    I wonder what I'll get given that I'm 49 (but 4 weeks away from 50 :eek: ). I was assuming I'd be grouped with 50 and above and get AZ or J&J. It's probably not that strict.
