    Only a matter of hours before the official time opens. Hardly that much of a queue jump.

    You should chase down any other under 35's that jumped the gun if you're that exercised by it. Them registering ahead of me pushes me down the queue too. You want a separate rule for me but not them. Blame the system not me

    Ah now some whataboutery.

    I can’t post what I want, I’ll get banned so good luck, hopefully you’ll get what you want with all the effort you’re putting in for yourself to be treated better than everyone else following the simple rules. You must be super important.

    Can I ask what pharmacy? Would like to see can I get an appointment quicker

    It's Whelans in Dunlavin (thanks to another poster here for the tip) but they have a post up on their facebook from Friday to say they are completely booked out. Someone mentioned earlier that boots have had some cancelations that pop up on their booking portal from time to time so that might be your best bet. Good luck!

    Still waiting for notification text for second vaccine? have phoned helpline a number of times over the last 2 weeks, apparently it's been "escalated" but still no text, anyone else having a delay with second jab?

    2 people who work with me, that got their first vaccination 2 week after me (they are 5 years younger than me) received texts for second vac today in the same centre I was vaccinated in, as I still hadn't received my text I called the helpline for the 6th time! and to my surprise she verbally allocated a vaccination date(at a different centre), no text and online portal wasn't updated, but 90 minutes later received text and portal also updated, so I suspect it's a case of the squeaky wheel gets the oil / vacination date.

    Did you just register today or did you register with the 35-39 group but your year of birth allowed it through?

    I only got tested in City west so i assumed it was the same for receiving the vaccine.

    My main question is around the Aviva stadium and if parking is available on site.

    According to the hse website:

    Parking Information
    The car park is just past the stadium on the left-hand side. Cost: €2 an hour. Parking is limited so please remove your car after your appointment to free up spaces for other people with vaccination appointments after you. There is additional parking in the Ballsbridge Hotel , Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, D04 D687. Cost € 2 for two hours. Parking is limited so please remove your car after your appointment.

    The Helix seems completely blocked from doing 2nd Pfizer doses.
    My wife is now fully vaccinated (Aviva). I got my 1st shot 2 days after her and I don't even have a 2nd appt yet.

    I'd love to hear some good news from someone that they got a 2nd Pfizer appt to the Helix finally.

    First jab on 4th of June. Second jab tomorrow so it is moving, just slowly.

    First jab (moderna) was on the 17th of June. Second jab on Tuesday next the 13th. Text received this afternoon.

    So 26 days between. Wife had first dose a week before me but is getting her second dose just the day before.

    I can confirm the Aviva parking is very handy for the vaccine, it's underground and has tonnes of spaces, there can be a bit of a queue at the ticket machines to pay on the way out but couldn't fault it.

    You have to pay for parking? Car park is free at the helix with barriers open

    :

    ...Plus they have separated the groups but yet their registration is subsequently a free for all and nothing like that breakdown you posted.

    Not a free for all btw. The HSE simply ask people to register by YOB to avoid overloading the system. Same as with all previous cohorts. It won't stop you registering before your DOB when it opens - but there's no advantage either. Trust me on this - entire family have gone the system. There are some regional variations with supply which may mean some people of the same age may get their appointments earlier. From registration to appointments is detailed as up to 3 weeks on the system.

    Martin did say people registering for 30-34 would be getting an appointment in the coming days - easily interpretable as in the getting the date, not that the date would be soon. So that does seem to be happening.

    Jaysus you and your first world problems are desperate! I don’t know how you cope! I certainly couldn’t deal with how tough your life is.

    Oh wait, I’ve been wanting to get vaccinated and travel open up so I can get over to England to collect my Dads ashes, where he died from cancer last year, because he couldn’t get treatment because of Covid.

    Get some perspective ffs.
    Sorry to hear about your father. I lost an uncle I was close to a few months ago due to the same issues. It was just awful. I didn't think it would affect me as much as it has but it hit me really hard. I hope you'll be ok, take care of yourself.

    45, Waterford, second Pfizer shot today. Can't remember when I registered but it was all plain sailing from registration to appoint via the hub from the get go. Glad to be sorted. Best of luck to everyone just getting started.

    Hi all welcome back.


    In the time that we were away I got my second vaccine appointment and got my jab yesterday.


    40 year old in enniscorthy Pfizer jab.


    All my friends in early 40s got text for second jab too in coming days so they really have speed up I think. Looks like when boards were down they were working faster so I can only conclude all the HSE are on boards :p

    Oh yeah and the girl that vaccinated me said she doesn't know why they are sending out text to ask people to answer the questions as the vaccinator is obliged legally to ask same questions on the day..
