I have had 2 shots of vaccine in Ireland and as I'm in my sixties I'm now due a booster. I am in Spain for the winter. Does anyone know how or if I can get booster here. I do not have residencia. Thanks in advance and stay safe

Hi, You can only get vaccinations through the health system and as you are not registered it is unlikely you will be given one.

I assume you are from Southern Ireland so in the EU and maybe ithey would consider it. 

Also I think you have to be over 65 for a booster at the moment. I am 74 and have to go to Centre and fix an appointment, but ainhave Residencia.

Only people over 65 who had there second vaccination 6 months or more ago are being given booster shots. I don't know if non-residents qualify. I have my appointment this month, but I am resident.

Spain is no9w over 60 - not 65.
