Friend back home are amazed at people in Thailand having to pay for vaccines (COVID-19).
There then disgusted when they hear the government is profiting from these sales.

Wrote for anyone working for BOI company or having Smart Visa to direct message me to share link. I didn't know that link can be publicly shared, at least that was the footer on the message with link I've got.
Fair enough.
Hopefully you get vaccinated.

Regular US postal service seems to get past customs most of the time. I just had a new watch sent from the USA, no problems. 6,000 baht cheaper than buying it here.
DHL has always been a problem. I always tell senders to not use DHL even if another option costs more.

There is no limit on the amount as far as I know. Bangkok Bank will change 500 baht to receive the transfer.
See: https://www.bangkokbank.com/en/Personal/Other-Services/Transfers/Transferring-Into-Thailand
And depending on your bank sending it can be free also. Chase Bank offers free international transfers for accounts with $250,000 and above.

Be nice for people to link any known sites offering vaccinations.

Idiots in charge.
Of course Astra Zeneca is going to have some good lawyers after the UK debacles.
There trying to blame Astra Zeneca.
The government has already paid upfront 600 million baht to the local Manufacturer. Its to be paid (no interest) back in vaccines.
So wrong.

I couldn't find anything on YouTube last night on the protests.
Just the protests from 8 months ago.
Good for them!

I think the lack of charging stations and the usual 300% import tax would be a deterrent.

I wonder why you would want to do that unless you want to become totally vegan or are lactose intolerant.
That's difficult in Thailand because there vegetables are notoriously saturated in chemical pesticides. and pretty filthy in general. Unwashed hands handling everything.

If it is to do with the Red Cross ,the Royal Princess is a patron ,she could well be paying for it ,
She gets a lot of donations ,that could well fund it
Theres no donation!
The villages have to arrange to pay 1,300 a dose from there own budgets. They then will supposedly vaccinate at risk people in there area.
There not supposed to charge these at risk people.
My understanding is the village heads are usually pretty corrupt. I can see this being resold at a steep price to the highest bidder.

Thailand is hardly a poor country. According to the World Bank classification system, Thailand is an upper middle income nation. It can easily afford to purchase all the vaccines it needs. It need not depend on charity. It's the will that's been lacking, not the cash.
So true.
Awful governance and one bad decision after another.
Disturbing.

That's what they told us over the phone, no refunds but you can give to someone else if your not here when it arrives and I might not be
You could do the Thai thing and sell it for 5 times the price you paid for it.

The world is not going to be fully vaccinated before the end of 2022
it is taking 9 to 12 months for the rich countries to be fully vaccinated,
there is currently 5 billion doses in production, we need 14 billions doses
this is just the beginning, and SE Asia will get the end of the deal like most poor countries, so 2022 is more likely the year when Thailand will start a full vaccination program
that means Thailand should expect about 150K deaths from covid in the next 12 to 18 months
like I said, this is just the beginning
They didn't order the vaccines. Thats the problem. They have or had plenty of money.

Currently, only one company is able to undertake the tests in Thailand. The minister mentioned nonetheless, that if price controls need to to be instigated, his office is ready to act
Monopolies always lead to higher prices.
Vaccines and tests are free in most countries. Having to pay for them is going to discourage the average Thai to purchase tests.

I go to the Hospital tomorrow to pay and will ask them that exact Question before I pay
You haven't paid. The deal for us is we had to pay up front, 3,800. No Refunds but you could give it somebody else.
Hopefully I don't have to leave it in my will at this rate.

New Water and Electricity Discounts July and August
in General Topics
Posted
The discount doesn't even cover the tax (VAT). I guess its better than nothing like the promised vaccines.
