if there is enough interest I'll start a thread about how to go to Guam to get vaccinated.

I had questions, so I'd encourage you to start a separate thread on your adventure!

Nice post but, having been born in Guam, I feel compelled to point out that it is not a country!  It is part of the US.

Yes, would be an interesting thread.  But just to set everyone's mind at rest organized, unincorporated territory of Guam is not in danger of capsizing.  Still the greatest single question and answer moment in a congressional committee meeting ever. ????

Hubby and I don't have yellow book/pink card, yet we are over age 65 and have at least one "chronically ill" problem each. After emailing the CM Health Department and asking when we would receiving a date for an appointment, I received a reply that there are Thai people still waiting to be vaccinated.  When I asked for clarification if this means that Thai people have priority over foreigners of older age and higher health risk, they responded "yes".  That was the final straw.

 

I forwarded this reply to the U.S. Consulate and Embassy and amazingly had phone calls from both the Acting Ambassador and Consul General.  Based on these phone calls and the risk of the Delta variant in Thailand, I decided it was time to act on my own.  I am now in Guam.  Pleasantly waiting for 14 days to pass until I can return to Thailand.  Guam just reopened the country to anyone who tested negative before entering.  No need to quarantine.  It's a beautiful island.  The entire island is duty-free.  Americans, come here and get your vaccine for free, your choice of vaccine, at the local mall.  Others, there is a nominal charge. 

 

When I return, Hubby will come to Guam.  Someone had to stay home to take care of the cats.

Thanks for posting this. How did you contact the US embassy? i've been trying through the email address provided in the Acting Ambassador's recent letter, but there's been no reply for 2 weeks.

 

We hope to Guam or the US one day for vaccinatinos, but we need to wait until Thai work permits and visas are renewed or we'll be up a creek.

Well organised, many people, almost exclusively farang, distancing and health checks, very well administered.

Sinovac won't be accepted to arrive in most countries. Good luck

Not a problem as I've no plans to go anywhere anyway, except maybe other SE Asian destos that I'm sure will accept it, considering they're using it themselves.

Well hello again. Having been refused registration three time now since registration for the vulnerable over 60 foreigners began on the 7th of June; today I was at my local hospital for my routine (three monthly) Diabetic Clinic check up.

 

The nurse who looks after me asked if I had been vaccinated. I said no and explained that it had been refused as I was a foreigner, She was horrified and phoned up the appropriate department in the hospital, Yes they had AZ available, I was to wait and they would call me forward later that morning. 

 

An hour later "Nong Noodle" (she mispronounces "needle") came out - she was sorry (genuinely apologetic) but a Ministry of Public Health official had said no!

 

So it is obviously the case that a definite political policy is being pursued by the government to not vaccinate foreigners, regardless of the (in my case) very specific clinical reasons advanced by the health professionals. I absolutely do not blame the hospitals. I am sure that if I contract Covid 19, they will treat me to the very best of their abilities, until some <deleted> in a paramilitary uniform comes along and says "You get out, you foreigner"!

 

So much for all the assurances from the Prime Minister downwards. Filthy <deleted> liars the lot of them!

That's outrageous. Medically, at the front of the queue. Politically, at the back. It's an absolute disgrace. Of course, none of this, and there must be 1000s of cases, gets onto the so-called daily CCSA "news briefing" government PR job, viz "er er er so you can see er er er the government is doing everything er er er it can and er all foreigners will er be included er er er". Rubbish!

i had an appointment too on mor prom registeree via a hospital, and many others i know.

 

just canceled  it as i got a faster one via thaiintervac. but wasn't hard to find a hospital that registers foreigners there...

Sheryl,

 

Any overall findings you can share with us?

 

My neighbor Nigel made in May to get his first vaccine at Hua Hin Hospital on the 9th of July.  I have yet to talk with him.  On 16 and 22 June while getting ear treatment at HHH I asked about registering.  They told my wife and I to use the Intervac web site.  That I did not try.

 

Terry

( just south of Hua Hin )

 

 

US Citizens - urgent note (you have only till tomorrow to register)  

 

Updated tally:

Foreigners report success in being vaccinated, with no issues (once registered) , in these locations:

 

Bangkok

Buriram

Chiang Mai

Chonburi

Kalasin

Mahasarrakham

Nakhon PHANOM

Nakorn Phatom

Nonthaburi

Pattaya

Petchabon

Phuket

Pracheup Kiri Khan

Prachinburi

Rayong

Samut Prakan

Saraburi

Sisaket

Sri Racha

Surin

Ubon Ratchathani

 

In addition, after an initial period where none-Thais were turned away, people are now reporting success in Suratthani/koh Samui

 

The only province still reported to refuse to vaccinate non-Thais is Chiang Rai. One TV member did get vaccinated in CR, at Overbrook Hospital, having been registered via their condo management, but several others report being refused (might be worth specifically trying at Overbrook).

 

This thread was initially started because there was a lack of clarity -- fueled both by  unclear government statements and (as it turned out, completely false) assertions by many  TV members  -- as to whether foreigners with appointments through the Mor prom app would be vaccinated when they showed up. Basically except for CR, they were and by this point there aren't many people left with Mor Prom appointments.

 

The big challenge now, CR excepted, is to get registered,.  And that is not just a challenge for foreigners, most Thais also can't get registered yet. Registration  is a moving target with opportunities opening up then closing very fast and new websites appearing and disappearing, some of them province specific.

 

What I can say is:

 

1 - you need to act immediately whenever a means of registration is announced, the vaccine supply is still very limited and things fill up very, very, fast. Leaving it till tomorrow - or even for a few hours - will like as not mean you don't get in. v

 

2 - all of the various online sites get overloaded and act up, you have to try repeatedly. In my case it was 8 hours solid online, well over 50 attempts. before I got registered. It amazes me when people post that they tried once and gave up.  You have to keep trying, over and over again. It will likely stay this way for months to come as demand is so great.

 

3 - Note special opportunities for Canadians and Americans (the latter closes tomorrow) to register and activities by the British Chamber of Commerce, in separate threads on this forum.

 

4 - If in Chiang Rai: (a) inform your Embassy if refused vaccination; the Embassies are in dialogue with the Thai government on the issue of vaccine access. (b) if applicable, ask your Condo management or employer to help  (c) try registering direct with Overbrook Hospital

Were you able to guesstimate how many shots were being given under the embassy scheme?

I estimate there would have been about 300 foreigners being processed whilst I was there, so for the whole today perhaps less than a thousand. Of the other foreigners there it seemed the Japanese were processed before lunch and in the session immediately after lunch I noticed Australians and Canadians mostly. I reckon a cap of 200 per nationality (which mostly seems to comprise Quad/5 Eyes allies of Japan excl. UK) under this scheme.

NancyL can you let us know about your experience getting a COE.  Thailand seems to be shifting to Sinovac then AZ for vaccinations and if that is true for my appointment in August I would very much consider going to Guam for my vaccination (U.S. citizen).  I went to the COE website and Guam was not in the list of countries to choose so am curious if you have to go through one of the Embassy's in the U.S..
