   Ireland: Covid booster programme extended to 18-49 year olds

   https://www.rte.ie/news/2022/1229/1344051-covid-ireland/

   It looks like vaccination centres have lots of availability right now. Just booked mine for this afternoon. Having had (mild) Covid this June (was triple vaxed), I can tell you you want to avoid even a mild bout of it. (And repeat infections carry risks.)

   Book your second booster* at: https://covid19booster.healthservice.ie/hse-self-referral/?flow=booster

   * If you’ve had 3 shots, you’re eligible. It’s confusing as it goes dose 1, 2, booster 1, 2…

     @epic This isn’t the time or place for anti-vax folks (I believe that was 19th century England.) Goodbye.

     @aral You have no concerns whatsoever about the safety of the boosters, knowing all you know from the likes of Dr Naomi Wolf? https://dailyclout.io/

     @driesverlinden What? Why? Are surgeries/pharmacies going to be able to meet demand?

     @aral Figuring out which dose I'm on was harder than expected 😅

     @annika Yeah, “Dose 1, Dose 2, Booster 1, Booster 2, Booster 3” is more confusing than it needs to be. I was initially confused too :)
