The UK is also providing vaccines to Thailand (415,000 doses). There are already several threads about it on the forum.

 

I'm not sure "donate" is the right word (even though the embassy and others are using it) because the official announcements say they will be provided "at cost price." "Donate" implies they will be given for free, which doesn't seem to be the case.

Yes, I have seen them, just at the time on the BBC website Thailand wasn't mentioned

Just when you thought it could not get any worse!!

You know what you can do with that!

I am starting to get really, really bored

That's because it isn't.

I agree. Some people on here will not agree though

UK are donating vaccines to Laos, Cambodia and other poor countries, they must not consider Thailand a poor country????

Happy for you. Now I will tell you my experience today. I am registered at both private and local (which ever comes first I will have, over one month registered) a few days ago pivate got in touch, come for vaccine 29th walk in, yesterday I sent message, confirm vaccination tomorrow, answer yes, this morning, happy as Larry set off on my bicycle, arrived hospital, paid my money then was told October maybe, everyone including Thais coughed up money and THEN was told October

I can see them changing things in the future, regarding extensions of stay. UK have already said that taxpayers will have to cough up for what it has cost in this pandemic

I'm confused. Is my license valid? 

 

I have never had one with a photo, it says until 2035.

 

I've driven in the UK and no one has ever asked to see it. I could always show my Thai one. 

 

 

Is a Thai Driving Licence valid for driving in the UK?

Also had invite from Thonburi for Moderna, why do some people find it so difficult? All you had to do to get an appt on Mor Prom was to spend 10 minutes applying for a tax number first, people preferred to spend hours on here moaning about not being able to get vaccinated instead.

I have registered TWICE!!!  at my local hospital, told me they would telephone, not heard a thing

Hi if you contact these people, they are putting pressure on Thailand for British expats.

Another advantage of AZ is that it is accepted by more Countries, where Sinovac isn't. For example if you have two jabs of AZ then Canada accepts you as being fully vaccinated, where if you have 2 jabs of Sinovac, Canada won't recognize it.

My best friend is Canadian and he is in constant touch with the Canadian Embassy/Airlines, he has informed me that you do not need to be vaccinated to fly into Canada, only a test then quarantine when arrive Canada

Four words!! <deleted> up and Brewery

Only the start. JP Morgan have just announced Thailand will be in the top 5 countries in the world in having their economy hit due to lack of vaccinations

Whatever your views Thailand have/are making a complete <deleted>> up

The best actors/actresses are the ones who are good/great in various/completely different roles, none come to mind in the last decade, can't stand Denzil Washington????

There are no restrictions in Loei at the moment, though new cases are increasing daily

"Singapore, the Philippine, Thailand and Taiwan are among those that have sought or signed deals for Moderna or have already begun receiving vaccine batches."

 

Other recent reports indicated that Thailand wanted 10 million by the end of the year but only got a committment for 5 million to be delivered by that date with the rest coming in 1Q 2022. 

 

Seems to me that 5 million doses should be more than enough to cover those willing to pay the 3,400 baht. 

Not sure about that, there are  many, many rich Thai people out there
