Thanks. We called yesterday and their instructions were to first go to any hospital in the area and register. No information where or when or whether any AZ is or may be available

When you got your first AZ-dose, you should have been given a date for the second dose together with an ID-number; didn't you get that?

I live in Chiang Mai.  Sure I got a date...for October...then the hospital moved up the date to September without giving notice...I came to vacation in Samui in mid September, intending to return for my 2nd shot in CM which I missed and the hospital refuses to re-schedule for me....

I do not know if the rules have changed but the original vaccinations were only available to foreigners that were registered as living on Koh Samui.

The first stage was a check of the visa in the passport against the immigration database.

This was to stop people coming here just to jump the vaccination queues. (Many tried.)

You may have to go back to where you are registered for your second jab.

To my knowledge, you need to be registered as resident on Samui to be eligible for vaccination on the island.

If you live in Chiang Mai, you are eligible for your vaccination up there, but you probably need to follow the province's regulations.

 Now at Central Samui.

Samui Hospital in association with Bangkok Hospital is taking walk ins for the Covid vaccine. Shots are in the food court area. I don’t  know what, if any, restrictions on any age group, but they are doing 1st, 2nd and 3rd boosters. I believe the first shot is limited to Sinovac; 2nd and 3rd is Astra Zeneca. I walked in and out in 20 minutes receiving my 2nd AZ. I understand they’re doing this through Wednesday. 
 

Interesting that neither Koh Samui Hospital or the Provincial Health Office informed me of this event when I visited both last Friday seeking vaccination information. 

Khaosod English...

 

Residents on Koh Samui queue up to get vaccinated against Covid-19 on Tuesday as the island gears up for the tourism reopening on Nov. 1. Officials say the vaccination center is open to everyone regardless of nationality, whether they are Thais, expats, or migrant workers from neighboring countries.

 

roll up, roll up, get your Sinovac garbage here

Just FYI, the vaccines offered now on Samui are AstraZeneca and Pfizer...????

I just picked up my "Covid-19 Vaccine Certificate" (the little yellow book), for which i applied over 2 weeks ago.
They moved the pickup point from the 3rd floor in the main building, to far behind the hospital, behind the place where they have this chinese medicine and massage area (called "room25").

 

From the mainbuilding turn right at the beachside, as if you were driving out of the area, following the oneway-system (only about 50m).
Just before the road turns right again (away from the beach) drive straight, along the beach, until you reach the small river, which flows into the sea there.

There´s the "Traditional and Alternative Medicine Department", where they hand out the vaccine books now.
Don´t know if this is permanent, but it looks like.

 

Koh Phangan: Second Pfizer vaccination for children aged 12-17 years old of all nationalities will take place place on 25th November from 8 am to 10 pm at Koh Phangan Hospital.

For more information, call 082 8182025.

Moderna is only available from private hospitals, you might need to reserve it in advance.

To my knowledge Pfizer is at the moment only given to children under 18, and only on specified dates (re. previous postings).

We received registration to the primary vaccination of Pfizer on December 13-15 in Center Festival.
Registration is done in local health centers that are in each area of Koh Samui.
I recommend to everyone who has no vaccine, do the same. ????

Re. Moprom / Mor Prom / Mohpromt "Digital Health Pass" (presume all same-same but different Western spelling), have anyone had success registering with this app..?

Yeah, did it ages ago...in fact so long ago I can't even remember where the link came from. But pretty sure it just needed that six digit (tax/vaccination) number to get it working

Thanks. I used both my Thai ID-number - which was the number on on my vaccination agreement, and it's normally, or often, the same as tax-ID - but it's not working for me; nor my passport number, where it the app insists on a 13-digit number...????

One of my staff loaded the app onto my 'overseas' phone and they used my 13 digit social security number. (I used this at vaccination time.)

That same number appears on the certificate on the app as well a the paper certificate from Nathon hospital but it does not appear on the yellow International vaccine passport(?)

I filled in my 13 digit number and phone number to register
Used the app to show proof of vaccination flying to Samui, flying in and out of Thailand and when asked at Test and Go hotel.

it shows both my vaccinations.

It's all coming back to me now, the number it wants/needs is the 13 digit number you were given on the yellow paper at your time of vaccination...on the original form it was labelled as Tax Number

Got my 3rd jab at Central this morning.

Basically no queue at all, in and out within 15 minutes.

 

edit: bring a copy of your first passport page or keep a 10 baht coin handy for a copy made there.

Seconded. Easy and well organised again, although they didn't ask me for a copy of my passport.

Yes - I was delayed for about 15 minutes waiting in a queue for a photocopy. The slowest copier on the island. After that - very quick.

Well done to the organisers.

(Friends who went did not need a copy of their passports and did not even have to show them!)

I went this morning 26th for my Pfizer booster. . Got there around 8:10 and was jabbed and out by 8:30.

 

They did the passport copy for 10 baht and asked to see my vaccination certificate (Mor Prom app). I think to check I was valid to receive Pfizer booster.

 

I forgot to ask them, does anyone know if the Mor Prom app e- certificate will be updated automatically to show booster?

I presume will have to go back to Nathon Hospital to have yellow passport updated sometime in the near future.

 

Any after effects? Chills? Fever etc?

 

Only had mine a few hours ago and waiting for it to kick in.

Yes, it should be - i.e. Mor Prom updated - and I was told that if you didn't bring a yellow WHO vaccination passport, you should go to Nathon Hospital and either have it updated, or request one (costs 50 baht). In case you don't have one, you need yo bring a copy of your passport and show registration in Mor Prom app, they can however find it in the system based on your passport. The office is in the ground floor of a new two-storey building, the Medical Cannabis Clinic, way back by the river...????

I just looked and Mir Prom already updated. I might go back to Central this afternoon with my yellow book and see if they can update. Save a trip to Nathon.

Went back and asked. Was told that I must go to Nathon Hospital to get Yellow Passport updated.

Interesting to note that my Mor Prom app has been updated to show my booster jab as being manufactured by Comirnaty.

Having Googled it I see the Pfizer vax  was re-named Comirnaty as far back as last August. Who knew that???

Most of the Covid vaccines have independent names, but in common language we know them by the manufacturer's name...

• Comirnaty comes from Pfizer-BioNTech
• CoronaVac comes from Sinovac
• Covishield comes from AstraZeneca

 

While...

• Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine comes fromJohnson & Johnson 
• Moderna COVID-19 vaccine comes from Moderna
• Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine comes from Sinopharm

 

And some no used in Thailand...

• Covaxin (BBV152) comes from Bharat Biotech (India)
• Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine comes from Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology (Russia)
• ZyCoV-D comes from Cadila Healthcare (India)
