spidermike007 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 This administration is now officially past the point of no return. All credibility has been lost. Change your story once, OK. Change your story twice, we get skeptical. Change it 75 times, and we don't even listen anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, thanks for the abuse. so you can’t back up your assertion that one dose of sinovac will substantially reduce the spread of the virus in the population of Phuket. all I wanted to know.

Hence I'm on (like most) a temporary permission of stay and renew the permit each year. I'm not a permanent resident. You can go through a process to become a permanent resident. Not to be confused with residence certificate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What concerns me the most is the absolute shambles I am seeing on TV at various vaccination locations, it's more akin to a scrum, a scramble, total disorganisation, the places look more like places to go to catch the bloody virus than avoid it. I was chatting yesterday to a mate in the UK, he's due here sometime next week, he said when he got his jabs there wasn't piles of paperwork, they didn't waste time taking blood pressure, just make the appointment, turn up 5 mins before, get jabbed, sit & rest for 20 minutes, go home. Why can't they do that here for crying out loud ?? I don't wanna be stuck in the same room as 100's of other potential COVID-19 carriers. Because one country is the most successful of all the major economies regarding vaccine procurement and administration,mainly as a result of a biochemist and venture capitalist (Kate Bingham) being put in charge- and the other country….well,you know the rest ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilotman Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 35 minutes ago, DavisH said: Take your medication as normal. I also have white-coat. The were stunned when my bp was 180/110. So I had to sit for some time to bring it down. At home. I'm usually 130+/80+. I shouldn't say they will refuse you, but will ask you to rest some time before the injection. That's a BP issue not a covid vaccine issue, per see. They are probably trying to deal with a stress situation in the person rather than any worry that the vaccine itself would exacerbate a BP problem, as there is no evidence that I have read that suggests that any of them do that.

I assume they mean non Thai residing in Thailand? Of course that's what they mean. Sounds good, right ?................. Working permit and paying social security, registered on the app and already given a vax date of June 7,8 or 9. I bet there aren't many of those. Maybe Bangkok, Chaing mai, Phuket, maybe........... I know of NO Thais or Falang that have been given these dates, or any dates for that matter. I do however live in a very sparsly populated farming area............

phosphorescent Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I registered a couple of weeks ago to get vaccinated. Then received the following message by text recently- "Since the registration for COVID-19 vaccination at Bang Sue Grand Station have to comply with the Public Health Ministry's measure which open for people who have Thai National ID card only, so we deeply regret to inform you that we have to cancel your vaccination registration. For customers with identity documents other than Thai National ID card, please stand by for further announcement from the Public Health Ministry." Having lived in Thailand for more than half my life, I'm still constantly being reminded that there are those who think I don't belong here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer, my UK friend, lies in the basic concept of "APPOINTMENT", which like many other things (time, numbers, the calendar) Thailand has its own unique interpretation of. For a Thai person (and hospital etc) an APPOINTMENT means turning up on a specified day. Not at a particular time . . . just the day. Everyone is given an "appointment" for 5th June (whatever) at 9.00 am. And then first come first served . . . this often involves the quaint Thai tradition of putting one's shoes in a line leading to the window/desk and then sitting down to wait all day (although nowadays this system has mainly been replaced by a noo-fangled hi-tech ticket machine).

rayw Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) Well I hope many of you follow the Washington childish, ignorant and stupid anti Chinese rhetoric and refuse Sinovac as that will help ensure there is plenty left for me and others who know this is the only CV19 vaccine available here that is a traditionally produced, not for big pharma profits, deactivated virus cell vaccine. Quite obviously it will thus produce a fully natural immunity response in the same way as catching and recovering from a full Covid 19 infection but of course without the risk of serious illness and death. I am no medical expert but this is surely clear rational common sense logic. I would take AZ at a push if Sinovac was not available but only in absolute necessity if we have a real definite epidemic here, and the figures are clearly far from that as yet, most likely due to effective and prompt lockdown measures and also the incompatible climate for the Covid 19 virus strains to easily propagate. Anyway, I am happy to take Sinovac straight away as it is imho a no brainer non experimental, safe and more than effective enough vaccine against Covid 19 instigated death and serious illness. Anyway glad to here at long last the vaccines are being rolled out, way too late but at least it is now happening.

But I have to admit that no matter how slow or how long it will be I am quite prepared to wait until the melee that becomes a free for all is over before even venturing near a vaccination point, hopefully private hospitals will be more organised, but I'm not holding my breath on that.

sesdave Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 So can anyone tell me as a non working retiree over 60 no ID card no WP living in patong fir the last 10 years register for a state vaccine. Online or in person and if in person where exactly. Happy to pay for private but having approached numerous private hospitals none have any idea when they will be able to offer it. Won't even let me put my name on a list. I would like to get a vaccine for numerous reasons- one being I do not want to be a guinea pig for the Sandbox 1/7. Any advice on how to get at least registered for a vaccine appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
