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

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.

Has anyone been called for the Helix recently? Just wondering what age they are up to. Thanks.

Hi Mostlycloudy, the Helix seems to be starting on the 1978s (42/43) tomorrow and on Thursday. (From this thread it's clear there are still lots of 1978s still waiting for appointments too.)

I haven't heard of any confirmed appointments there past Thursday so would be curious to know if anyone's gotten an appointment for the weekend? I'm 1979 myself so hoping to get one soon.

Had my first Astra Z dose on 1st of April in City West but got a text this morning for my second dose of Astra Z tomorrow but location has changed to UCD so changed venue for some reason? Btw is parking free in UCD for Covid as anytime I've been over there on campus it was quite expensive to park up there

Got my 1st jab this morning. Seemed to a long queue in front of me - approx 100 (based on ground markers). It moved very fast - about 45 mins to get through it.

Credit to all involved, it runs like clockwork. We're very quick to kick ourselves and indeed our public services but what I was today was a well oiled machine. Right down to the person cleaning the chairs after people waited for 15 mins.

Totally agree its fantastic to see how well its working. Once the supply is there it's bang bang bang.

FWIW a friend of the family (age 69) got AZ eight weeks ago today. They got a text last night for the second dose this coming Friday, so it looks like they're bringing the gap down. My mother, also age 69, had her first dose on the same day in the same MVC but hasn't heard anything yet.

What's the advice re consent? Just ignore it on the portal and complete it at the vaccination centre.

Just had mine done in Carrick on Shannon. Spent about 3 minutes in total queueing. Probably no more than a minute or two answering questions and getting the vaccine. Now just waiting out the 15 mins. Very, very efficient.

Had mine done this morning with the exact same efficiency

ACitizenErased

seems like there’s delays in Cork now alright, uncle is getting his second dose 33 days after his first. Know another person who got his first the same day and no sign yet.

Congrats great to have it done, both of us still waiting for appointment for Carrick. But if they only vaccinate twice a week we might be waiting.

Myself and the missus (both 40), both registered on 5th June within 20 mins of each other - she got her date (16th June) on 9th June - I haven't heard anything. Just posting by way of reference for others - I'm in no rush as imagine there are others in greater need for various reasons so happy to let fate take care of things...

I'm 42, and wife is 40. Registered same day. She's going tomorrow to get first dose and I haven't heard anything yet. All very strange, but don't mind hanging on once I know it's coming..

That's very interesting. You would think that with the same Eircode and age range you would at least be within a few days of each other? You would wonder what way the algorithm works alright. But sit tight, your time will come

Any tips for someone with a deep fear of needles ….I’ve made appointment turned up to center got out of car walked to door but just couldn’t do it ,felt physically sick ,anxious ,broke out in a cold sweat just couldn’t do it went back to car and had to sit there for good 20 minutes before I felt able to drive
I’m not anti vax and fully understand the benefits of getting it but the fear is overriding everything else .I did phone and cancel is there any way I could get the Jansen single dose as if I can manage to get myself in to get it there’s just no way I could go thru it again I’m 42 snd if honest slightly embarrassed …..

Pharmacies are starting to vaccinate from the end of the week. Using Jansen single dose.

It is for over 50s but maybe a referral from your gp may help.

I went to Aviva at 08:15 on Saturday for my 12:25 appointment. They weren't too happy with me being so early but I had a letter from my CBT therapist and that did the trick. They made sure I got to a nurse who knew how to deal with trypanophobics & I was jabbed within 20 mins. With the Xanax, EMLA, & disassociation techniques, I barely noticed.

I did get body spasms in the recovery area so they moved me to a trolley in a private area for observation. I think I was there about half an hour.

I must commend the staff who were really so helpful & made the experience as stress-free as possible. Back in 4 weeks I guess.

With this under your belt, the mystery is gone - now you know how it feels. 2nd dose will be much easier for you.

Possibly. The problem is it goes into spasm and I won’t be able to stand or walk if it does. I can’t even get from the hall door to the gate.

No idea how I’m going to do this tbh.

I might just not be able to attend. I’ll try but I can’t guarantee I won’t just get completely stuck.

Seems to be no provision for situations like this, like a diversion to GP route or something.

There has to be a small % of people in similar situations.

I would like to think security/organizers would be helpful in situations like this.
I'd definitely try to talk to them. Ppl with conditions like yours should be able to skip the queue in my view.

My mother is due her second dose tomorrow and has heard absolutely nothing. Got her first dose in PUC. Not sure if Cork has slowed down or what.

ACitizenErased wrote: »

She just rang HSE and they seemed to just say wait it out. Bit frustrating as I thought the 28 day gap was being followed give or take a day.

When my sister rang early last week, she was told something similar, she rang again on Friday and was given an appointment for yesterday. So if you don't get a text this week. I would ring again maybe Friday or next Monday?

I have heard from several people that the Aviva are doing 42/43 year olds on Thursday. It has been reported here that the Aviva are doing second AZ doses to those 65+ on Friday and Saturday.

Then what? Anyone know what group the Aviva are doing on Sunday? And when the Aviva will do those aged 40 and 41?

Thanks.

Probably a lot more AZ for Group 2 and second dose Pfizer. There are big shipments expected so it shouldn't slow down for long.

I'm 1976 and finally getting dosed tomorrow in City Hall after the HSE pretty much forgot about me. When I escalated on day 21 I did get an appointment text on day 22, being last Thursday, (and a follow up call in fairness to make sure I had received it) for tomorrow, 16 June. But even though I had slipped through the cracks I was told on that call that the earliest date available was indeed tomorrow - then 6 full days away. So basically I don't think these has been a whole lot of MRNA first doses given out in recent days in Cork.

On a personal level, can't wait. Its been literally embarrassing telling people over the last week I'm still unvaccinated at my age in Cork - people beginning to assume I'm anti-vax or something.

I’m aware of other people getting first dose (1977) tomorrow at City Hall.

I’m not convinced that the supplies are all that copious.

It seems very stop/start.

I’m guessing that they’re just working as deliveries are arriving with no buffer.

Has anyone been able to move their second dose to an earlier day than the 28 days?

I don’t think that’s advisable or that it would be facilitated. The second dose needs Minimum spacing. Pushing it further out would have little impact but moving them closer together might reduce the efficacy.

They have to wait for your immune system to develop adequate response before administering a booster and that takes time.
