Not talking about myself, I would take J&J regardless if offered - the only one I would turn down is AZ purely because I don't want to wait 3 moths for the second jab, I really want to get done asap.

I should have a 2nd vaccine coming up in couple weeks and am wondering if the IT disruption will mess them up. I know the ones through the portal are not impacted but this isn't organised through the portal.

No recommendation, guidance based on you medical history. Register with HSE and get what they are giving you. She was in a hurry to get off the phone. I assume they may be getting too many calls like these and may be a bit annoyed.

If you are Dublin then I'd expect a text over the next few days with 2 or 3 days notice. Some have only 1 days notice

My question is: has anyone any knowledge of reasons why EastMeath/South Drogheda appears so far behind? I registered on 5th May, age 58 and no appointment yet. This is the position for all under 60s go far as I can tell.
