I was all ready to rock on up tomorrow armed with just a text, but now just received a new appointment by text for Sunday afternoon, so the appointment was 'rescheduled' to within 2 days of the original appointment. So I'll save myself the hassle of turning up tomorrow. Interstingly, when I log in to the portal (NOT to complete the medical questions lol), it is now saying the medical questions have been answered! So it seems to have accepted the originally answered questions which led to the appointment being cancelled?? Anyway, there's definitely a glitch in the system somewhere but alls well that ends well - unnecessary bother though!

A comfort message just saying that “Your are registered. We are processing your appointment and will be back to you soon.” might be useful if it goes beyond say 7 days. I just know one person who is getting worried that they’ve possibly inputted a wrong ppsn or that there’s some glitch or reason that they’re not being given a date for a jab, while others, younger than them, are.

I'm afraid the elated ship sailed about 10 days ago... In fairness I can confirm the existence of the escalation team. I got a call from HSE live about 60 seconds after receiving the text to see if I had. Did have a brief discussion. He is on that team. He was the 4th HSE person I spoke to, 3 of them very helpful the other less so but still fine. I asked if there was any way of going sooner given there are MVCs doing Pfizer with a few km of me today and tomorrow but he said no. Fair enough (but still not sure why they can't slot one person in). So 6 more days it is, but I will take it at this stage. Awfully stressful few weeks, my heart goes out to those older than me still waiting. Horrible feeling of helplessness. Hopefully this whole spell in our lives will be but a mad memory this time next year.

is_that_so wrote: » It seem more complicated than that and may be down to vaccine allocation at the various centres. Croke Park is small in comparison with the other larger centres and don't forget there are second doses to be done. That means a specific vaccine for the day. Doubt that second one is true but it's not unusual for GPs to call much younger age groups.
