Registered on Portal: 9 June
Received appointment on 22nd June for Friday 25th that I had to cancel. Cancelled immediately, so waiting for rescheduled appointment since 22nd.
Location: Shoreline Greystones

I rang the HSE line - registered 2nd June, still no appointment. It is being "escalated" and "you will get an appointment very soon" which I took as code to be just wait and you will eventually get one :cool:

Down in Croker for my second Pfizer/BioNTech jab. Happy out

(If the flu-like side effects don't floor me again, the sunstroke will. Mad queue altogether.)

Edit: all done, I'm unstoppable now.

I did the same and was told it will be at least 4 weeks plus 5 days. Won't escalate anything until after this. Frustrating.

36, Just got my text from greystones for sunday morning, registered on sunday the 20th

Pfizer?

Got my Pfizer vaccine through my GP earlier, absolutely delighted, I had only rang them yesterday to check if they were doing vaccines. Also just checked the portal and it is still the same - "awaiting appointment 1". My advice for anyone waiting a number of weeks would be to try your GP.

Got my first jab earlier today in city hall in cork. Turned up a bit early and it was all very well organised and was in and out in half an hour. Lovely stuff and seems very well organised. And I feel fine so far.

Been waiting to do this for weeks

Age: 38
Registered: 19th June
Appointment: Monday 5th July (on portal)
Location: Portlaoise
Vaccine: Pfizer

Local pharmacy is starting on over 35s from this Sunday so I'll see which one happens first I guess. I obviously won't cancel on portal until I have the jab but if I need to, is it better to call/ tweet them rather than 'stop vaccination process'? I'm irrationally worried my vaccine history will be wiped or something!

PropBuyer101 · 29-06-2021 6:37pm

anyway to register with gp just for purposes of getting a vaccine? dont have one i go to generally

You have an appointment for Monday, why wouldn't you just go with that and leave the pharmacy for people who haven't got an appointment yet? There's only (potentially) one day of a difference anyway.

PropBuyer101 · 29-06-2021 6:42pm

how do you log onto hse portal when you have registered but havent heard from them.?

Hmmm this is true. In my excitement I thought the 5th July was Monday week!

Go into the place where you registered initially and down the bottom of that page you’ll see “already have an account?” Click on that and login

If you scroll to the bottom of the screen there is an already registered section.

Fair enough!

Finally second appointment showing on portal for next Tuesday exactly 4 weeks after first .
It means a 6 hour return journey for me on Tuesday .

PopTarts · 29-06-2021 7:26pm

Does everyone get a follow on text saying update and how important it is for you to attend and to read the vaccine leaflet and to give your consent.

Do I need to give consent or can I wait to the day.

29-06-2021 7:27pm

Has anyone else had a text asking you to log into the portal before your appointment to give consent? I just got one now, but I'm afraid to do it in case it messes something up for me (I know some people on here had their appointments cancelled).

Does anyone know what's happen to the Galway race course schedule when the "Galway Races Summer Festival (26th July – 1st August 2021)" gets under way.

I see thy are hoping to allow 5K people to attend per day. Can they accommodate this plus continue the vaccines? Most race days start at 14:30.Can they work up to this time for vaccines?

Are they planning to pause this location for first doses, but many people will be due there second does at this time, will they be rescheduled to another centre?

I thought the pharmacies were only doing over 50s? Did they annouce a change to that then? Do you know if they are offering Pfizer or J&J or one of the other vaccines?

I had to phone 6 days in a row, starting 4 days before my 4 weeks were up. Got told on Sunday I was escalated and now have a date for July 1st. Infuriating having to fight to get a vaccine when my appointment was clearly missed by the HSE's automated system, 38 year olds in my area are getting vaccinated before me (40). Keep calling HSE Live and complain, seems to be the only thing that works

Pharmacies doing both Pfizer for over 35 starting Sunday and j&j for the over 50,s which they are getting very little uptake.

They did announce a change to that. They will likely have J&J.
