Good news for all us geriatric millennials, as the online booking system for Covid-19 vaccines will open for 30-34 year olds towards the end of next week.
Health Minister Stephen Donnelly confirmed the news on Twitter, also mentioning that AstraZeneca 2nd doses for 60-69 year olds will be completed in the coming weeks.
The progress in our COVID-19 Vaccination programme continues.
* AstraZeneca 2nd doses for those aged 60-69 to be completed in coming weeks
* 351,000 vaccines administered last week.

People registering for the vaccine will need their PPS number, their Eircode, a phone number and their email address. Registration will be via the HSE website.
You can also register via the Covid-19 helpline between the hours of 8am and 8pm, Monday to Sunday.
The news also came recently that the HSE will no longer offer vaccine appointments to people who refuse them 3 times, effective from today.
It is thought that the new policy will help speed up the rollout and reduce the risk of potential wastage. Anyone seeking a further appointment after this stage must contact HSE Live and ask to be reinstated.
