The app, devised by the company Omni, estimates where each person is in the queue to receive their Covid-19 vaccine in Ireland.
The Omni programme bases their results from a number of factors including the health and wellbeing of the person and the number of vaccines available in Ireland at the given time.
The app, which is also available in website form, asks people to respond to a list with a maximum of nine questions, dependent on whether each category applies.
Once the questions are answered, the app automatically gives a set of dates between which they estimate you will receive your jabs, based on the information provided.
Many will be shocked to find, that under current circumstances they could be waiting until the middle of, or late 2022, for their second jab.
The app can be downloaded or website accessed at the following location – https://www.omnicalculator.com/health/ireland-vaccine-queue
Manga Translator says:
It’s mad how something as simple as a date on a calendar can bring such a sense of relief, isn’t it? I remember refreshing the HSE page endlessly, trying to figure out where I stood in the queue, and this Omni app sounds like exactly the kind of clarity we all needed back then. The fact that it factors in your personal health and the current vaccine supply makes the estimate feel a bit more real than just a random guess. I’d be curious to see how accurate it actually turns out to be for people in Kilkenny, but even a rough timeline helps you plan your summer. It also reminds me of how handy it is to have tools that break down complicated processes into simple steps. If you’re still waiting for your jab and want a quick estimate, you might find the Manga Translator useful for translating any official pages you come across in other languages.
