18 to 34-year-olds can also register to receive the Janssen vaccine at a pharmacy.

25 to 29-year-olds can register to receive an MRNA Covid-19 vaccine at a vaccination centre from tomorrow (16 July), Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly has confirmed.

The portal will open for those aged 29 at first and will open up to each of the other age groups over the subsequent days.

Everybody aged 30 to 69 who has yet to receive a Covid-19 vaccine can also register for the jab on Friday.

18 to 34-year-olds can also currently register to receive the Janssen vaccine at their local pharmacy.

To register online for a vaccine, you will need a mobile phone number, an email address, your PPS number and your Eircode.

If you do not have these things, you are advised to call the Covid-19 helpline to register by phone instead.
