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.

Is this Portlaoise? Haven't seen anyone getting vaccine apts in Portlaoise recently. Whole load cancelled at weekend so wondering if they're now a good bit behind everywhere else

Yeah a large portion of second vaccine dates cancelled for this week in Portlaoise.. I know a few people who had put holidays back because they were due to get second vaccine this week. Seems to be a big push on getting all the over 50,s the second jab.

No, and there hasn't really been any hints about it. I'd say the earliest registration will open will be 5th July.

This seems the most likely, next week. But based on the progress seen in the last while, plenty of places will be basically down through to 35 year olds then.

I'd expect it to open up next week and people in that bracket start to get appointments almost immediately.

Yup, it's the hotel in Portlaoise. Same place I got the first one.

Does anyone know when 29-34 year olds are meant to be able to register? Can't find anything online about it

I am one of the luck ones offered a GP jab but don't live close at all now to said GP. I have also just gotten a text for my MVC appointment on the same day.... Waiting forever for a bus etc.

I have travel booked in early August and looks like I'll need to be fully (2 weeks) vaccinated to go which means I would need the MVC vaccine to be at most 31 days from my first app. The GP is booked in for both shots and the second one will be on time.

So... is it possible to get the first shot at the centre and if they are not coming through on time for the second dose, can I get it that GP? Just trying to save myself a drive if possible

This is very quick, thought they were behind at the helix.

Good news!

Got 2nd dose Pfizer on Saturday in Aviva, morning appt.

32 days after 1st jab.

Was quite busy down there, but I was only 15 - 20 mins or so from registering to getting jabbed. Very efficient, fair play to them, they must be bored senseless at this stage sticking needle in arms.

Having watched this for months, I've seen a fair bit of evidence suggesting this might be right.....

It doesn't mean you get the vaccine sooner, just that your wait is shorter because you registered later.

if anybody is registered and waiting a text to advise of appointment date/time, i would recommend that you also keep an eye on website as well where you registered.

I was waiting on a text re my 2nd appointment and only by chance checked website on Friday evening to find my appointment was for the following morning, no text received. When i mentioned it out there was told i was the 2nd person who had said it to them that morning.

If GPs stop giving jabs it will slow down the vaccine rollout. This means it negatively impacts everyone. Get those jabs into arms by all means possible. Yes it will mean some(some =small numbers) in there 20's and 30' getting done before those in their 40's but that's a minor detail at this stage.

Political pressure should have been put on them. We are at war with the virus.
The world is at war with the virus. They should have been on standby to be work weekend's. Some of them didn't want to.

Similarly, people should have also been told not to go to your GP unless it is really important. I seriously wonder when you make something free do people just go too quickly and clog up more important services.

No. It was clear from the start that GPs were to do over 70s and cohort 4 and 7. That's all.
Anything extra is for €€€ right now.

Non-update update.
Sat 26th June was 28 days after 1st vaccine.
1972 North County Dublin Pfizer @ the Helix.
Nothing on portal(awaiting 2nd appointment) or by text. Just rang helpline and was told no escalation available untll 28 days +5 days. Nothing can be done untill then. Nice enough person on other end of phone, could kind of tell she was fed up giving people bad news/no news.
Back to waiting I guess.

I think I've read that the guidelines from Pfizer say up to 6 weeks max. Even though the UK stretched it out further back in the springtime.

I got the Moderna vacccine.

Well I assume they schedule me within the correct timeframe.

They are just working through their patients by age. If they are finished with the current cohort why wouldn't they move on to the next one? They've been doing this since the beginning.

Not really early or a surprise though if your GP has taken your name to get one!

I have no idea how GPs are able to prebook and get vaccines delivered for people that are not in a cohort 4/7, over 70 etc, or in the age groups that are open for registration in mvc. There must be absolutely no control over them. These aren't last minute, end of the vial, no one else to vaccinate around them vaccine, this is clearly pre-ordered.

Is there maximum number of days or weeks in which a person needs to get the second dose?

I had to cancel my appointment for today and the text reply said new appointment “in the coming weeks”.

That’s it. The paperwork given with the vaccine states 3 weeks but they’ve been giving it after a month here, give or take a few days.

No I understood that but I was the one being unclear. I meant he got the appointment message very early.

But isn’t day 27 too early? I thought the earliest it can be given is after 28 days?

I think (open to correction) that between 21 & 28 is fine. I know my father in his 70s had his second Pfizer after 26 days - the Saturday would have been 4 weeks but he got called for the Thursday, so I guess its ok.

My friend did get the text early though, 6 days in advance. For the first dose, as it happens we were both driving to the same place, and our texts arrived as we pulled up in the car park, with two days notice.
