VaccineHunter Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) 4 minutes ago, Jingthing said: I have a question about the form. It asks for first and last name but they have a message saying their very picky about passport matching. My passport includes my middle name. I'm not sure what to put in the fields. Whether I should omit my middle name or if not, include it in the first or last name field. the instructions say clearly to put it in as per your passport - so just put name and middle in the name field and the last name into the last name field and I would do that all with the utmost sense of urgency...

Jingthing Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 So we have two opinions on the middle name. I tend to agree it would be better to include it in the first name field. Thanks for the feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both options work given that they would cross check against the submitted passport number and cross reference that with the uploaded passport information.. Just move fast please I am sure this will be "sold out" again in a short time... Edited July 15, 2021 by VaccineHunter 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But does anyone know for sure if it's AstraZenica vs. Sinovac? Because if it might be Sinovac, I guess I should still try the Phayathai 2 lottery tommorow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 OK, folks. This is NOT in Pattaya. Another chance in Bangkok And it might be Sinovac not AstraZenica. Which would suck. The thailandintervac site clearly says that both brands are available. The Phayatai 2 direct link still talks only of Astra. The Medpark link, which this post is about doesn't promise any brand. But if you miss out on Phayathai 2 (lottery ends tomorrow) this is definitely something: From intervac: ThailandIntervac.com : The Office of International Cooperation, Department of Disease Control ,Ministry of Public Health Thailand Direct Link: Covid19 Vaccine Expats - MedPark Hospital Actual appointments with confirmation emails available in August RIGHT NOW. I don't know for how long. You will need a scanned file of your passport I.D. page. Happy vaccinations! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chillax - if you get Sinovac which I think is unlikely then the second shot will be Astra Zeneca according to the latest news so you should be fine. Actually you might be even better off because as previously said your dose spacing will be only 4 weeks then..

I didn't like the personal stuff even if you were trying to be funny especially after I was viciously, relentlessly, and completely unfairly insulted and slurred tonight on another thread by another member. I just have no patience for being a punching bag for arrogant smug expats that think they're superior because of special privilege, owning pink cards, or just luck here, not saying you're one of them.

Ha ha. Well you certainly did enough complaining.... had you spent the same amount of time researching you would have found the MedPark information out yourself instead of me posting it up on the forum for you !!!! Or you may have registered with the ’Thai system’ (yellow book) and got yourself vaccinated through Mor Promp already. You really can’t handle the slightest dash for criticism... I don’t think I’ve ever come across a poster who is so thin-skinned. For anyone else - the MedPark link works. As JT mentioned, it may be Sinovac or AstraZeneca. Instead of debating the uncertainty for those who want to they can call up the hospital and ask the question. I suspect those who have appointments won’t know what vaccine they are getting until they are there. But, with all the complains and moaning it would seem that beggars can’t be choosers - any vaccine is better than no vaccine and you can always ‘boost’ with a better option next time.

Fair enough - but if you start calling me "dude" you gotta expect a more casual response back.. its a 2 way street.

To add it also seems the easiest and most refined signup process so far! Btw I went to Med Park last month when they where just beginning with the Intervac process to inquire about everything and they told me that they get daily allocations from the Government for the vaccinations - sometimes its AZ and sometimes Sinovac - this might have changed already but just thought I let the people here know. Either way getting vaccinated is better than not getting vaccinated for most of us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 I'm curious, does anyone know exactly when the Medpark link showed up as having bookings available on thailandintervac? Usually I've been checking intervac daily, but THIS WEEK I was focused on playing the Phyathai 2 lottery game so I didn't click on it this week. It didn't occur to me that something else would show up there this month. So even though I have a booking at Medpark, I'm curious how fresh that link is. I wonder how many doses they have? If it's been there a few days how is it that they still have bookings, when the other two sold out so incredibly quickly?!? In any case if you're willing to go to Bangkok and take a chance that it will be Sinovac, yes really should RUSH to book with Medpark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortstop2 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I made an appointment! Thanks for the link Jingthing! I already have Phyathai appointment but they could conceivably run out so good to have backup. Note, originally Phyathai scheduled me for Saturday the 24th then sent me SMS rescheduling to the 26th saying they don't do weekends, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 I want to add that those of us now on a path to get jabbed with ... something ... should consider the majority of expats still without access to vaccines in Pattaya. Medpark is booking now but surely they don't have unlimited slots, some expats here can't/won't travel to Bangkok and need local access, and some have their own reasons why they can't take a chance that it will be the weaker Sinovac. Obviously it's not only expats with access problems in Pattaya, but as long as expats are discriminated against for vaccine access here, this issue is NOT resolved. It's not only about ourselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
