COVID booster certificate

Yep I reckon boosters , certs the whole long will be like the evoting machines in 6 months. And we'll all wonder did the lockdowns make any difference at all in altering the trajectory and casualties of the virus. Did they even prolong the time before the virus became endemic . The vaccine made a difference but did the lockdowns.

I just got a booster card at the vaccination centre so I better get looking to get the updated cert online…

pity there wasn’t some way to issue it when you were getting boosted..a lot of older / non tech savvy people will be struggling a bit… you’d say it’s more resources at the centres but it will be more resources anyway manning phones…638,000 people approximately are in the over 65 bracket in this country and a reasonable percentage in the upper echelons of that age bracket will either not have the nouse to do it online, might not even have a computer or indeed a social / family contact to help. Anybody know if a way around that exists. ? Such as ordering it by phone ?

I think I read somewhere that when you do get the digital cert there is some rigmarole to upload it to the app, youve to use two phones to scan it off one of them to then upload it. Can anyone confirm?

Ahahaha no it's not, you mention it to them and they run a mile saying it's not their business.

OP I had an absolute nightmare trying to get mine as my original doses had been abroad. I just had to leave my laptop open on that poxy live chat for literal hours until someone would f*cking answer, and I had to do that several times as they kept making up dates on me. I'd say to keep using the live chat, it eventually works, but god is it a struggle to achieve anything on it!

I was just surprised to hear people going to mygov portal , I presumed OP referring to MyGovdID portal but maybe I misunderstood, that portal for Revenue, welfare etc .

I got my booster in early December at my GP (Immune compromised) , got my updated cert very quickly after Stephen Donnelly announced the date they were being sent out, just surprised people having difficulty getting them albeit all they are needed for is travel .

People are still getting this injection after everything that's happened...wow

Because they want to be able to travel?

According to VAERs people turning into the hulk.....

You need to go via below my advice is go on at 830 to live chat.

Perfectly valid reason to have a random injection which does nothing
