ALREADY more than 77,300 people in Ireland have received the first dose of their vaccine, with a target target for 700,000 people by the end of March.
The government predicts that by September 2021, everyone in Ireland who wants the Covid-19 vaccine will have their first dose.

The Government has published a priority list of groups that will receive the Covid vaccine first. This order begins with residents of long-term care homes and ends with people under the age of 18.
The Minister of State for Public Procurement and Electronic Administration, Ossian Smyth, has published a table that tells him when he will be vaccinated against Covid-19 in Ireland, assuming that vaccines increase from the current 42,000 a week to 285,000 a week .
According to Smyth, by the end of March 1.4 million doses will be administered to 700,000 residents of long-term care homes, frontline workers and people over 70 years of age.
Between May and June, 1.8 million people will receive their two doses of the vaccine and all those under 54 years of age will receive their first dose between July and September.
Currently, three vaccines are the key players in Ireland’s vaccine plans: Pfizer / BioNTech, Moderna and Oxford-AstraZeneca.
VACCINE CALCULATOR
An online vaccine calculator predicts that it will take Ireland 4.5 years to vaccinate everyone, based on 42,000 vaccinations a week.
However, according to Minister Smyth, this weekly figure will rise to 285,000 by the end of the summer as the capacity of the vaccine increases and the use of new injections is approved.
The online calculator uses your age, health, and occupation to determine where you are in the Covid jab queue.

When will you receive your vaccine?
Omni’s Vaccine Queue Calculator will calculate how many people are ahead of you in line to receive a Covid vaccine in Ireland.
It also predicts how long you will have to wait for the first and then the second dose.
All you need to do is enter your age, job, and if you have a health condition.
It is based on the government’s priority list and the likely vaccination rate.
The tool assumes that 42,000 people will be vaccinated in a week, which would take 4.5 years to vaccinate all, but this time is likely to decrease as the number of vaccines increases in Ireland.
Adjusting this to 100,000 per week would mean that everyone gets vaccinated in less than two years. Whereas at 200,000 a week, everyone in Ireland would be vaccinated in less than a year.
TAIL BY AGE
Omni also predicts that 74 percent of people will accept its offer of jab, based on accepting the flu vaccine.
Under the current rate of 42,000 weekly doses:
- A healthy 25-year-old is between 1,546,026 and 2,909,914 people behind in the queue, and will not receive his first dose until September 2021 and May 2022.
- A 40-year-old man with an underlying health condition is between 511,003 and 1,021,190 people behind in the queue, and will not receive his first dose until between April 2021 and July 2021.
- A 70-year-old man is behind between 43,392 and 323,590 people in the queue, and he will receive the jab between January 2021 and March 2021.
