Following the opening of the HSE vaccination portal for 12-15-year-olds last night, over 42,000 people had registered by mid-morning today. The HSE said this is likely to be the last age group of the vaccination campaign

Its chief executive, Paul Reid, said many will have already received appointments for this weekend.

He said that the vast majority of children who get the disease will have mild symptoms and the vast majority will recover, but a small minority will have serious complications. Professor O'Farrelly said the vast number of cases of Covid-19 being recorded globally are among the young and unvaccinated people.

She said real-world data from wide-scale vaccination in the United States uncovered a rare side effect of myocarditis, or heart inflammation, in this age cohort that was not seen in the clinical trials. She said it is considered a very rare side effect and a manageable one and that parents will be informed about what symptoms to look out for and when medical assistance is needed.

"I have issued three million and I know just about three million have been vaccinated at this stage." "If your data was never typed into the system or if an address has changed it is possible your DCC has gone astray."

marietcasey You should be ashamed of yourself. Pushing these on children.

42,000 out of 280,000 that age…. 🤷‍♀️

This so impressive. Lower the voting age next please

How do you get 42,000 morons into the same building? Used to be a teeny bop concert… not anymore

Likely

Seeing as RTE aren't so hot at maths it's probably 42 😂😂

Can we count the blind sheep? do you not realise that your child has a 1-in16000 risk of developing a heart issue from the vaccine if they're boys and a 1-in50000 if they're girls?these issues occur 1/500000 generally.The risk outweighs the benefit.deaths from covid-19 0 in 4.9M

So glad were all getting vaccinated so we can maintain social distancing, continue wearing face masks, getting our papers checked just going in to sit down for a coffee. Love it!!

Wonderful news!

How many people are in this cohort?

How much have the taxpayers been charged now for the last time Tony Holohan forced a vaccine on people?

Brilliant!!!! Get jabbed up and ignore the crazies

Hey Parents, if you let them jab your kids, know that YOU are fully responsible for any outcome, not the Government, not NPHET, not Pharma companies and not the HSE. YOU are the parent, YOU are responsible!!
