People aged 40-44-years-old can register to be vaccinated this week.
Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly tweeted this afternoon that online registration will open up to the age group on Wednesday June 2.
The vaccines will be rolled out as they have for previous cohorts, “starting with those aged 44 that day and those aged 43 on Thursday and so on,” Mr Donnelly tweeted.
Everyone between the ages of 40 and 44 will be able to register here on Wednesday.
People aged 55 to 64 and those aged 45 to 49 started receiving their jabs this month.
Those who register on Wednesday will be next to receive a jab in June but everyone younger than 35 and over 24 will have to wait until July.
Onmicalculator.com’s Vaccine Queue Calculator estimates that someone aged 20 has over 1 million others in line before them in the queue for a vaccine and won’t receive their first dose until mid July or early in August.
So far, more than two million Covid-19 vaccine doses have been given out as the rollout ramps up.
