  1. ok, I would imagine similar policy might be at all private hospitals offering moderna. I quoted from Medpark for those, who have bought from them. Also the other hospitals were mentioned above in discussion. There might be governmental rules about private vax distribution and all hospitals would have to follow them
  2. from Medpark page looks, like can get refund: "Once the vaccine has been received, the vaccination sequence will be prioritized according to the chronological order of paid registration, and the hospital will send you a personal unique link to book your vaccination date and time in advance. However, your vaccination date will be adjusted according to appropriate recommendations based upon your vaccination history. Nevertheless, if the hospital could not dispense you the vaccine by the committed dates below, you can request a full refund or wait for the next round of vaccine allocation: Those who reserved for MODERNA vaccine during July 2-4, 2021: April 30, 2022 Those who reserved for MODERNA vaccine during August 17-27, 2021: July 31, 2022 The registration for vaccine reservation cannot be canceled, is not refundable and is final." https://www.medparkhospital.com/en/page/moderna-terms-and-conditions?utm_medium=email&utm_source=Jotform
  3. with school closed most of the time within the last 2 years, there is no more dengue fever danger - schools being the main factor in spreading disease in community. From the past some 70k infections per year and some 50 deaths, now down to 2000 in the first half of year and only 2 deaths (that is for the whole country, not just for bangkok, even if this campaign is bangkok focused). Due to incoming rainy season dengue statistics will rise, but still only some 5-10k infections and 5-10 deaths. At the same time millions were infected with omicron and many thousands of deaths. Again, schools play a major role in spreading covid in the community. If they really wanted to tackle dengue out brakes in the future (it probably won't be anytime soon, within the next years) they should look into vaccination program for school children in endemic areas. Similar to what Philippines did some 5 years ago to some 700k pupils. Even one dose of Dengvaxia (and not 3 recommended by manufacturer) might be good enough to prevent future out brakes. If direct contract with manufacturer and large governmental financial support, they would be able to get vaccinated all kids in bangkok aged 9-14 (probably on voluntary basis, to avoid potential back clash from parents)
  4. he, and many others, spend over 6 months in jail in 2020 for organising protest outside Prem's residence back in 2007 (that was for alleged Prem's pivotal role in 2006 coup). They got royal pardon from their long, multi-year, sentences. Looks like he is re-joining pheu thai and it means toning down his last year's rhetoric on constitutional and monarchy reform (he did some good talk as a guest speaker at foreign correspondence club sometimes at the end of 2021) He will be losing his political capital as an independent voice and became again a pay rolled politician. Likely to give him a MP seat, but at cost of losing younger generation vote.
  5. as good as he is, he would never become nominated by the democrat party because he was involved in serious corruption a long time ago.
