This is in the Isaan Forum, but in Bangkok I just registered direct with Bumrungrad as I have a hospital number, and got a confirmed appointment for the end of July.  It's the AZ vaccine, and free as I have a Thai tax number.

Awesome..  I registered here in KK and have no appointment yet.

The is  from VOA.

The call by American expatriates is becoming more urgent as more contagious and virulent variants of the coronavirus emerge. 

"Americans who live abroad need to be vaccinated for the same reasons that Americans who live in the United States need to be vaccinated," Risley told VOA Thai. "Because it's the only way to stop COVID-19." 

Expatriate Republicans echo the Democrats' concern. 

"In this particular case, all of us are on board," Tony Rodriguez, vice president of Republicans Overseas Asia, told VOA. "Obviously, there's plenty of vaccines in America. Just get them on a plane and fly them over."  

The two groups, along with the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 12074, and American Women's Club, on May 6 signed a joint letter asking Washington to get vaccines approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) — namely Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines — into the arms of overseas Americans as soon as possible. 

In the letter, they asked "that our government now continue to fulfill the pledge made by President (Joe) Biden to make coronavirus vaccines available to all Americans."

Here in Japan, the vaccines are also being made available at workplaces. Factories, company HQs, offices, etc.  The vacs are provided by the government and the companies pay for nurses/doctors to administer them.  My university is doing this as well for all staff and will start the process in July.  

 

I guess the problem in Thailand is actual lack of vaccines more than distribution.

Correct.. They just don't have the product.  Therefore the total population suffers.

That is the way it should be but it certainly has not happened.

Even a low risk province like Phuket has been getting extra doses to be ready for the sandbox. 

Exactly my point Joe. They are not living up to their promise.

I sent an email to the Consulate in BKK voicing my concerns that they have abandoned US Citizens living in Thailand.

As we know, the French Embassy has made arrangements for their citizens to get the jab in BKK.

I told the consulate that I find it inexcusable for the most powerful country in the world which happens to have an abundance of vaccine to leave their citizens living abroad in jeopardy.  In my opinion, Thailand has no intention to make vaccine available to foreigners.  If so those with underling conditions would have had the jab or at least an appointment.

BTW, my wife who works for the Revenue received the first jab last Friday.

I managed to register and check to see if I had a appointment before and the only hospital it showed were in Bangkok.

Now the site has this at the bottom of the page.

"As the current round of vaccination appointments is full, we will be announcing the new round of appointments for vaccination at https://www.thailandintervac.com. We apologize for all inconvenience."

Thanks for the update Joe. I was able to register at Srinagarind Hospital at KKU via the App.  The only thing I have been able to confirm is my name is in the system.

After inputting the requested information on the thailandintervac website, I got a "You are now registered" message displayed on the screen.  But I was not given anything to prove that I am registered - no registration number, and no confirmation e-mail, even though they requested my e-mail address.  No appointment date & time either.

Thanks for the reply.. Same here absolutely no update..

I am 75 years old with underling conditions which according to the Thai Government gives me Jab priority.

The US Embassy has sent updates suggesting I register at the hospital that has been treating me over the years.

I atempted to do so and got the following response.  

"  It's absolutely not possible to find a vaccine from any hospital in Thailand during this time being. All of the vaccine in this country are currently distributed by the special task force builded up specifically only for this job. We can not control the jab by our self, what the hospital can do is just providing a jab according to the list of Thai people given by the government.

To the best of my knowledge, there is still no system for a foreigner living in Thailand to find a way to register for such an official spot. What you can do right now is probably seek for a vaccine booking with a "private" hospital sector and hope for the best that the vaccine could be distributed ASAP.

I'm so sorry for you, and hope you can find the way through, please be safe."

For privacy issues I will not state which hospital in the NE sent me the above statement,

I am registered via the หมอพร้อม App but have not received a Jab date.

Has anyone been successfully registered and received their Jab date? Any information would be appreciated..

Who in their right mind would believe a Phuket Study.

I assume your last report was done in person or by mail since the system was down when you did it.

Others have had problems due to doing there previous report was not done online. It appears the system may be only using the records for previous online reports for the reporting window.

Did my report online about 8 days ago. Got instant approval and was the first online report for me.

Did mine 2 days ago and got instant approval and next report date.

BTW first time it has worked for me..

I renew my Marriage extension every year at the KK IMM Office. I use monthly deposits into SCB and have never been asked for proof source for my income.

We all know it depends on the IMM Officer.

why not just vaccinate people as they show up? 

Because That's to easy...  Plus they will figure out a way to screw that up as well..

Still not working for me. Have to in person, bummer.

Gotta be a reason it's not working Charlie.. Mine would never work for years till yesterday when Joe said use American in the country box. I always used US which obviously was the wrong entry. Check your entries something is wrong..

Apologies Jeffrey... I figured it out.

 

The link is actually one of the boxes the main page of the application site... Duh...!

Glad you got it sorted...

I just did mine.. No issues it was approved and I printed out my next report date.

BTW  First time it ever worked for me.

I can never get the online report to work.. I fill every field correctly and still get the contact Immigration message. What am I doing wrong.

A dog bit my son last month. We took him to the hospital where he received 2 shots. The hospital gave us a card that ststed what was done and told us to take him to any local clinic which we did.

I suggest you do the same.

Out of all the hundreds of products I have bought online, none have arrived broken. Packing I have found to be very well done. Least of my worries.

This arrived yesterday

No benefits for COD. Always pay by card, not sure if your UK card will work though AND if the chargeback would be as fast

Disagree.. If you change your mind, or it's not as ordered or damaged.. you don't have to wait for a refund which can take a week or more.
