There is no appointment for these Walk-In Booster Vaccine Clinics, which will deliver a single booster dose of the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. These clinics are for 60-69 year-olds only – no other age groups are permitted. Please note also that five months (150 days) should have elapsed since you received your Dose 2 vaccine before attending for a booster.
Anyone attending these walk-in clinics should bring their vaccine record card, and also bring identification, either their birth certificate or a valid photo ID (such as driving licence, Public Services Card, travel pass, passport, Garda-issued National Age Card, or school or college ID). For queries, contact the local HSE-approved helpline number on 087-9681240 (9am-6pm, seven days a week).
Anyone who has had a COVID-19 positive result in the last 6 months should not attend for a booster vaccine.
People should note that they may experience delays when attending a walk-in clinic.
