PEOPLE IN THE 18-to-24 year old age group may be able to register for a vaccine now, despite the official registration for that group not opening until Monday.
In a statement to The Journal, the HSE said: “The software change to enable people aged 18-24 to register has been made over the weekend so it is possible that some people in this age group may have already registered in advance of the formal launch for this age group.”
“The formal launch for the 18-24 age group takes place on Monday and will give people the option to opt in for an AstraZeneca vaccine if they wish. Opting in means you will be offered the AstraZeneca vaccine if a Moderna or Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine is not available.”
People registering for their vaccine on the HSE website will need their PPS number, their Eircode, a mobile phone number and an email address.
People who don’t have all of these, or who would prefer not to register online, can call HSELive on 1850 241 850 for assistance with the registration process.
Those registering through the portal will receive a Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccine.
People aged 18-34 are also currently able to register with a pharmacy to receive the one-dose Janssen vaccine, subject to supply.
The HSE is also planning to roll-out an opt-in system to allow those aged 18-34 to register on its vaccine portal to receive an AstraZeneca or Janssen vaccine in a vaccination centre.
Public health officials today confirmed a further 1,377 cases of COVID-19 in Ireland.
The Department of Health reported that 78 people with the illness were in hospital yesterday, including 22 in intensive care.
In a video posted on the Department of Health’s Twitter page, Deputy Chief Medical Officer Ronan Glynn said: “Unfortunately our incidence has now risen to over 180 per 100,000 cases and we’re reporting a five-day average of cases of over 800 cases per day, and that’s the highest it’s been since the beginning of February.”
There is a particularly high incidence rate among people aged 16 to 30, Glynn said.

They are truely a beautiful people, with a beautiful culture. Far superior by all standards.
Gawd I have to agree with u there. They astonish me. Such commitment to culture. Its wonderful.
Eh? Aren’t you forgetting a few things? Such as the Rape of Nanking etc. etc.
Picked up a book by Arthur Golden “memoirs of a geisha” and have been fascinated by their culture ever since. Some excellent books out there about Japanese culture, they are so proud of everything and have never let anything like war take away their core values and beliefs.
Tell that to the POW soldiers from World War Two how nice they were to them. Sweeping statement from you Sir, judge people as individuals rather than a group.
Eh…. no!
Well the actions in China and agsonst POWs should not reflect on country or people. The Germans done horrible things in killing millions of Jews. Tge British firebombed dresden for revenge with no military importance. The Americans dropped two A bombs horrifically burning tens of thousands
War is hell
So back to Japanese culture. It really looks so amazing :) I love all things Japanese
Rísteard I completely disagree. Yes elements of their culture are to be admired but their society is full of inequality, they have a high suicide rate (top 10), they can be xenophobic and lets not forget their shameful recent history.
Don’t get me wrong I love Japan and it’s culture but knowing my freedoms here I would not like to be Japanese at all.
What about the hundreds of thousands of Japanese Americans that were sent to internment camps in the USA during ww2 not much difference to what the Germans did … Yep that’s a story that you don’t really hear about
“They are truely a beautiful people, with a beautiful culture. Far superior by all standards.”
There’s nothing beautiful about those three faces. If you want to know about their culture, look up ‘Nanking’ and their use of vivisection (operating on someone who is awake without anaesthesia) on the Chinese, which has conveniently been left out of Japanese history books. Beautiful.
They have an issue now with young people living at home and never getting married (hikikomori), you can buy used schoolgirls’ knickers in vending machines and they have porn that involves an octopus. They also kill thousands of whales for ‘research’ and in general their culture of pride is known to be rather overbearing.
BUT. They make nice cars and I love my twin exhaust, 20 valve Toyota.
It was the US that forced the Japanese to declare war and also the American government allowed the attack on Pearl Harbor on purpose and didnt inform their troops even tough they knew it would happen so theyd get a reason for their aggression

He looks like a Japanese Damian from the Omen
Well he was born on the 06/09/06 so could be something to that ;)
wimmin as emperors? down with that sort of thing!
Monarchy is wrong on so many levels. What has that child achieved to be held in such esteem? Absolutely nothing.
Monarchy is not just undemocratic, it is antidemocratic. It relies on the reduced rights of Subjects to maintain its position
He looks like the fella out of The Goonies
I feel sorry for royals, particularly within a monarchy with such strict, ritualized codes of behavior. There is beauty in the rituals but to live your whole life that way means you have no personal freedom. That boy has only one life and he won’t ever get to decide what to do with it.
These bus drivers are getting younger every year ! ! !
Do Japanese monarchs marry there cousins too? with all the inbreeding its a wonder they can function at all really!
we can say the same about the brits lol
He has his fathers eyes.
