Digital Covid Certificate Information

We wish to advise that GPs have NO role in the issuing of documentation to patients in respect of the Digital Covid Certificate.
Any letter or email from GPs will NOT be valid as a Digital COVID Certificate.

Please see below information from Government in respect of the 4 types of Digital Covid Certificate – in particular please note that a helpline is being established for Certificate Based on Recovery (Positive Covid Test).

There are 4 types of Digital COVID Certificate:

Certificate based on vaccination
You can get this certificate if you have been vaccinated against COVID-19. If the HSE has a valid email address for you from the vaccination process – you will get your Digital COVID Certificate by email. Otherwise, you will get your certificate via post.

The Digital COVID Certificate will be in PDF format when emailed to you. You may download it to your phone, where the QR code on the PDF may be inspected or scanned.
These Digital COVID Certificates will be emailed or posted in the coming days.

Certificate based on recovery
A certificate of recovery will be available from 11 days after a positive test, and will be valid for no more than 180 days. You will be able to request this DCC via a helpline. The emergency certificate helpline is available on 1800 851 504.

Certificate based on negative RT-PCR test
You can obtain a RT-PCR test privately and a Digital COVID Certificate will be provided by the private RT-PCR testing service.

Certificate based on negative antigen test
You can obtain an antigen test privately in Ireland and a DCC will be provided by the private testing service.

NOTE: A DCC based on an antigen test will not be accepted for entry to Ireland, but is acceptable in a number of other countries – find out more on the ReOpen EU website.

Our lovely patient Michael Moloney getting the second dose of his Pfizer vaccine from our practice nurse Lucy Mannix today.

We were delighted to still receive our delivery of vaccines to allow us to give the second dose to our over 85 age group. It is wonderful to now have this age group fully vaccinated. It was a very positive day in the surgery.

We hope to continue with our vaccination programme and move onto our third age category of 75 - 79 year olds as soon as the HSE makes these vaccines available to us. We will contact anyone in this age bracket as soon as these vaccines are available and we look forward to seeing you all then.

Best wishes,
All the staff at The Davin Clinic

We were delighted to vaccinate the second group in our over 70’s cohort last Friday. Dr O Dwyer can be seen here vaccinating her lovely patient Kathleen Frawley. It was another successful vaccine clinic and it was really lovely to see all of our patients so excited and relieved to receive their vaccine.

We will continue to work through our over 70s patient population and we will update you all as soon as we have more official information on the further vaccination programme for the wider population.

On Friday 19th March, we hope to be vaccinating our next group of over 70s along with giving our first group of over 85s their second dose of the vaccine . Once we have confirmation of our vaccine delivery we will contact all these patients directly.

We hope you’re all keeping safe and well,
The Davin Clinic
