Absolutely. I made the point earlier in this thread that Israel has a massive military infrastructure which can be used for this task and a national identity card to track people. It is ridiculous to compare us to them.
Distribution has been a model of efficiency. Vaccinations happen seven days a week in most places and even late at night. While it is a civilian operation, the army is vaccinating its own soldiers and helping with tracking and tracing infection and some logistics.
I get that the delay is frustrating - but per head of population, Ireland is doing better than many European countries we think of being more efficient including Germany, Finland, Netherlands, Norway. The ones ahead of us are UK, Denmark, Italy, Slovenia, Spain and Estonia (per ourworldindata.org)
So this isn't linked to any HSE data and it can't definitively say when you might be vaccinated.Online Vaccine Queue calculator can tell Irish people when to expect first dose
At this stage - with the roll-out just starting - it's a rough estimatewww.corkbeo.ie

current time to vaccinate everyone: 4.5 years at the current rate

I made up a calculator too, and posted the length it would take weeks ago: https://www.askaboutmoney.com/threads/delays-in-rolling-out-vaccine.221590/post-1697863current time to vaccinate everyone: 4.5 years at the current rate
It only takes into account the current rate - if the rate improves or worsens I assume it will be updated accordingly.So this isn't linked to any HSE data and it can't definitively say when you might be vaccinated.
No doubt it doesn't take any other variables into account either like increase in vaccines delivered allowing more people to be vaccinated.
I think I'll stick with my crystal ball.
In other words uselessIt only takes into account the current rate - if the rate improves or worsens I assume it will be updated accordingly.
It is using data published by the government but is not an official website - the HSE would have likely trouble to set something like that up in the first placenor does it shine a positive light on them
for you perhaps - for others notIn other words useless
You mean others who can't apply simple maths , its not exactly difficult.for you perhaps - for others not

Basically 52 * 40k = 1.92m
Population 4.8m ? / 1.92 = 2.5 years.

Doctors don't take the Hippocratic Oath, haven't in generations.Public health doctors in Ireland meanwhile consider strike action (I wonder how that works out with the Hippocratic Oath)
But it's 'just a bit of fun'. It gives absolutely no real indication of when anyone will be vaccinated, because it can't handle enough inputs to do so.seems to be there is good interest of people to get a rough estimate by when being able to get a jab...
I am in no rush in any case and not even sure if I will bother at all with the vaccine.
