Vaccine registration to open for 30-34 year olds next week

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. https://twitter.com/DonnellyStephen/status/1410587813704351746?s=20 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.
