So many people are going to go through all that in the middle of red zone areas in a pandemic. I think not!

The idea is to get vaccinated not take risks of getting infected to get a magic number.

 

 But thanks for that really. I do have a blue book and you've explained well that isn't enough.

 

I have another important question which I asked before but nobody answered.

 

Suppose you did get a new number or even an existing number. 

 

But suppose you've never registered with that number at a Thai hospital.

 

Would online registration even work if the system didn't have a record of your number in their database already? 

 

I recall reading that it wouldn't. Perhaps someone can clarify.

Yes, online registration on Mor Prom works for foreigners or Thais as long as you have a 13 digit ID (pink ID). My friend from England, <60, registered on Mor Prom with his pink ID and has a June 7 vaccination date. Two caveats:

1) Mor Prom is only available in Thai language, so you may need help

2) The Mor Prom government App does not give you choice of vaccine. I surmise it will be Sinovac.

    And when I visited three hospitals yesterday, and the local health office they all told me that foreigners cannot register until 1 July. It's a great article but what it says, in practice, is wrong.

Bangkok Hospital is a private hospital, they are not involved in the enrollment or the vaccinations, yet. Go ask at a government hospital, we're getting pretty good cooperation from them in the North now.

And yet Bumrungrad is canvassing for applications?

They're just making waiting lists of potential future customers, that's all. Many of the private hospitals are doing that but none of them have got vaccine, neither will they get any until the government says so.

Exactly right. In fact it is explicitly illegal for them to book vaccine appointments for doses they don't have (and may never get).
