    It has been 2 weeks since now and still no appointment - I check the portal every day, nothing there either. I called them yesterday, nothing they can do - bla bla bla, it is automated system, wait 3 weeks.
    All around me, younger and registered after me already got their first jab.
    Frustrating...

    Same! My center will be Punchestown & I'm 40, where & what age group are you in?

    Got a call earlier from my GP to come in Monday for the J&J vaccine. I'm 33 but caring for my mother who is receiving treatment for cancer so I think I was prioritised slightly. Anyone in my age bracket received the J&J shot? Any side effects? I believe it's only one shot which I'm happy about!

    That's interesting to get a J&J shot at your age. It's supposed to be very effective and the risk of a serious blood clot is extremely low as I understand it. 1 in the hundreds of thousands I believe if not even lower.

    The 200k per week is from july and is the figure the government themselves have provided. It's in the article. They are the ones announcing the slowdown , not me.

    That's because we won't be administering AZ anymore, that's all. There's no slowdown. J&J which is replacing it for over 50s (how many of those are left?!) only requires one dose.

    I think lots in their 20s/30s would like the option of those in their 60s to take AZ and be able to be vaccinated and have a proper Summer.

    Any risks of AZ are tiny, so the 60s are in a far better position than the younger age groups.

    Will they wait the 8 weeks between doses?

    Eh yes there is a slow down. Pfizer supply will be decreasing and given the restrictions we've put on other vaccines we're limited to 2 vaccines now

    Yeah, I thought it was strange to be offered the J&J too. Maybe the have a batch left over or something? Hard to know. Glad to hear that about the minimal side effects! Cheers.

    Have heard in last few hours of three others in my wider group ages 41/42 in south Dublin area all getting texts for same venue and day. Appointment times are close enough together that there are plans to meet for a drink afterwards. Yay!

    I think I heard Luke o Neill saying not to go nuts on the drink the day of a vaccine as it could impact your response.

    Hope your not a woman because according to WHO us 18-50 year olds shouldn't be drinking at alcohol at all!

    I shall raise my single celebratory glass of stout (if it’s good enough for a new mother…) in a toast to Luke. Tony H not so much.

    Why not Tony H? The man soldiered on through his wife's illness and death at a time when, as the public face of NPHET, he wasn't that popular. Couldn't see myself being able to do the same thing in his shoes.

    My in-laws were both told by the GP to avoid alcohol for 24 hours after Pfizer so as not to impact it's effectiveness. But given all we've been through the last 15 months, there should be a free bar for 15 mins in the observation area !!

    Think it depends on the day and vaccine. I was there 2 weeks ago and no queue at all, was all done in about 20 minutes including the 15m sitting around time.

    yeah i know a few over 50s that were in and out in no time
    but then those in the 40s group have been talking about the massive queues and up to 2hr wait time

    Onto day 31 now with no second dose appointment for the mother. Got her first on 18th May in PUC Cork. Know people who get theirs on the 19th, 20th and 21st who have been done.

    40, carlow. Still waiting, feels like a long 12 days:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,667 ✭✭✭Klonker


    So what's the expected time lines at a guess? Thinking myself that 35-39s from 28th June onwards until about mid July, 30-34s from mid July to early August. Hard to see college students getting their first doses before September at that rate.

    I am guessing City West are doing second dose AZ next week . Everyone I know have appointments for dose two next week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 459 ✭✭Paranoid Mandroid


    Punchestown is doing well now. That's a good few early 40s getting sorted. From a North Kildare perspective, most people I know have gone to city West for dose one mRNA (+45). I've heard of a lot of AZ for city West next week so I'm lowering my expectations.

    My Dublin Northside friends in the 40-42 range have all received dates for the helix. As per many pages back in this thread, it seems to be location and the luck of the draw.

    I'll escalate on week 3 but happy to know that my mother is getting AZ on Friday. The oldies, front line and the compromised are what is most important so I'm good with that.

    I know a 42 year old from D14 who got their text today, so I imagine yours will be tomorrow (if they send them out on the weekend) with a date late next week.

    My partner just got his text for his 2nd Pfizer shot at Aviva on June 25th (he's 49). It's scheduled 32 days after the first shot rather than 28. One of my colleagues said his appointment last week was exactly 28 days (to the hour!) after the first. Anyone know if my partner's delayed shot is an anomaly or if Aviva is more generally falling behind on keeping up with 2nd doses for folks in their late 40s?

    My 2nd Pfizer is on 30 days and not 28 as initially scheduled. I was speaking to a work colleague today however who is due his 2 AZ and he is getting it in my scheduled centre on my initial date, so I can only assume it is the way calendars are being arranged for all the different vaccines.

    Just delighted to be fully vaccinated my mid June anyway.

    Thanks! I figured it was due to 2nd AZ doses. Folks who got AZ have been waiting way longer than we have and are at higher risk due to age, so glad they are being prioritized.

    Husband due to get Pfizer 2nd shot, day 28 tomorrow, City Hall Cork. No appointment yet, by text or on portal.
    I would have thought once the portal gave a first shot and it was live, a second one should come automatically, but seems to be random.
