The HSE has opened registration for vaccination for children aged 12 to 15 years. Parents and guardians can now register for a Covid-19 vaccination for their children on the HSE portal.
Vaccination can be provided at a HSE vaccination centre, or through participating pharmacies or GPs. The consent of parents or guardians will be needed either when registering online, or at the vaccination centre.
The HSE has said that it will try to facilitate parents who are working with later appointment times. It has asked parents to look at all the advice on vaccination for this group, to decide what is best for the children and to discuss the vaccination process with them.
