Got a confirmed vaccine appointment - Post your age and appointment date

JimmyVik

Got a confirmed vaccine appointment - Post your age and appointment date.
So we can see exactly what ages they are vaccinating at any time.
Dont post if you've already been vaccinated.
Obviously I havent got an appointment to post, so am curious to find out what age they are actually doing at the moment.

any one know when will registration start for 40 to 44 group?

It’s really hard know but going from the last pauses between years I’d say end of week or early next week but that’s just a guess. Places like cork seem to be romping down the years so not sure if they’d start them earlier as it looks like they’ll be do to 45 before some centers reach 50

Unfortunately my GP has finished vaccinating. The told me in Aviva that many have finished.

We were told today that there was a computer glitch the first day 60 year olds could register and they were skipped. They also said it could be three weeks before it's sorted.

It seems odd that it was such a widespread yet only local glitch.

Have we an idea of what age group is being vaccinated in Drogheda today?

Lucan's population is 25% larger than Drogheda, but doesn't have it's own vaccination centre.
We can't have one in every town.

The catchment area of Drogheda is closer to 70,000. The likes of Laytown and Bettystown would also be expected to be done in Drogheda. The only MVC in Meath is in Navan. The issue people in those areas have is the fact that they still haven't done people in their 60s and delays of 3 weeks+ are starting to become the norm.

That's a fair comment .
From reading this thread it appears to be 50-52.

I think people in Drogheda would be right to complain if they are well behind the average age in terms of the group being vaccinated (I've no idea if that's the case or not).
Well that is definitely what is bothering me. I don't think it is unreasonable to travel for a vaccine but that opportunity is not being provided. Across Co. Louth/East Meath there is a serious delay. We are reading on here about 48 year olds being vaccinated around the country while we have 60 year olds still waiting. Either NPHET are serious about vaccinating by age or they are not. At this point I think this area (and any others suffering in similar way) need to be prioritised. Bring them into the Helix, City West and Aviva until the backlog gets sorted. I'd say most would happily travel at this stage. Put a stay on the younger age groups until the entire country has caught up

Ah yes, the good old rolling eyes emoji, for those times when you think someone is being a bit too paranoid when in reality you haven't actually thought about the information being posted in the thread.

I have no problem with people posting the information, but I'm making the point that they should be doing it knowing that there are a few possibilities of breach of privacy.

One would be, a regular user who posts elsewhere on the site and has now included their age, general location (and even possible whereabouts on a date in the future) and possibly gender. This along with other small tidbits of information they've posted over time could result in doxxing, at the least.

Another could well be used to perform a social engineering attack, the more information you provide the easier it is for this to happen.

Finally, the likes of Facebook/Google/Amazon/Microsoft etc etc track your internet behaviours via analytics, metrics on websites and cookies. Do they really need any more help on building a profile to bombard you with more bull****? Bear in mind, it doesn't even matter if you have an account on any of these services or not, they're still building that profile.

The internet is full of strange characters, I just try to encourage people to be more thoughtful of what information they freely post online.

I have thought about the information, and yes I do think it's a bit paranoid. :rolleyes:

My basic point is that complaining that Drogheda is behind is a perfectly valid point (if true). But complaining that Drogheda doesn't have it's own mass centre isn't.

Drogheda is well and truly behind, and of 70k people in the Drogheda-EastMeath-Balbriggan area, those who needs vacciantion have to travel at least 30k to a vaccination center - And that is all so because so because "they" did not plan a MVC in Drogheda or anywhere near it.

From reading this thread it appears to be 50-52.

I think people in Drogheda would be right to complain if they are well behind the average age in terms of the group being vaccinated (I've no idea if that's the case or not).

I also think they would be right to complain if they have excessively long distances to travel to the nearest MVC.

But a blanked "Drogheda should have a MVC" isn't a fair complaint.

Until local politicians pushed very hard for a vaccination centre in the area, residents would have to travel to Dundalk or Navan.

This makes me wonder if a Drogheda centre was a political solution. "Put one there and shut up those politicians". But as a result Drogheda got a small centre and is proceeding slowly, while it might have went much faster if the population was left to travel to the bigger centres in Navan or Dundalk.

My basic point is that complaining that Drogheda is behind is a perfectly valid point (if true). But complaining that Drogheda doesn't have it's own mass centre isn't.

I’ve been waiting for my appointment for almost three weeks. I registered on the correct day and live in South Dublin. Family members and friends all got their appointments within a couple of days of registering. I’m very keen to get my vaccine. I noticed when I logged into the portal that none of my progression bullet points were highlighted - everything was grey. Anyone else I know could see their progression stage in the system. I called the helpline several times and was told my registration is in order and they would ‘escalate’ my case. Nothing happened. I called again this morning and but this time I thought I would try using the Irish language option as I found many of the helpline staff seemed to be reading off scripted answers and didn’t understand my query. I had a suspicion my registration was not properly activated. This morning I explained as best I could in Irish and felt this time the helpline person was engaging with me. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or not, but now my portal looks like it’s active. There’s a status box that says I’m awaiting appointment 1 and the corresponding bullets are highlighted. I’m now more hopeful of getting my appointment soon. So if you have been waiting too long for your appointment and don’t see any of your progression stages highlighted, there could be an issue with your registration.

The vaccination centre in Drogheda covers Drogheda County Louth and Meath as well as East Meath. The population in this area is over 70000. Until local politicians pushed very hard for a vaccination centre in the area, residents would have to travel to Dundalk or Navan.
The new vaccination centre supposedly is only open 3 days a week and the hours are limited.
People in their late fifties are still waiting for their first vaccination.

Just had my vaccine in drogheda this morn. Only 6 cubicles in use. Was in and out in 28 mins though

I believe escalate means just get you off the phone.
They probably wont do anything until 3 weeks after you have registered.
You are probably still in the system and can expect a text any day up to 3 weeks after the date you were supposed to register. If it goes beyone that then maybe ring them again.
Im still waiting myself and am in the 45-49 group.
And I know a few other 50 - 52 who are still waiting too. Cant be too long now.
I think it depends on the month of your birthday as well as the year.
