How are you feeling? Help from embassy?

It does seem rather insulting that tax paying US expats all around the world are being ignored in the rollout by their very own government and instead being told to turn to foreign governments for help. 

 

There is a ready supply in the US to meet our needs, and the international logistics for getting those vaccines imported through diplomatic channels would easily be achievable.

 

IMO, it's just another example of the present US Administration's total disregard for "We, the People".  Honestly, It's unacceptable and downright disgusting!

I think embassies should help expats with vaccines in some countries depending on the situation in the country. Arguably there is a good case for one of those countries to be Thailand. But maybe not. Let's see how the Thai program shakes out in June and July. 

 

You do however seem to be implying that the previously defeated president would have been on board with vaccinating expats. Without getting into an explicit partisan politics thing, I definitely don't think that he would have.

You really are devoid on knowledge here, aren't you?

"If you can't do that you can't afford to be abroad."

Another inane statement. Do you live in Thailand? Have you lived in USA? Have you spent money for living expenses in either country?  I am trying not to use the word "stupid", but it is not easy. From now on I'll take Sufi approach:
"The best answer to a fool is silence"

What's stupid about it?
