kynikoi Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 We all need to think about going home if that is possible. This entire healthcare and political system is/are broken. This will be expensive, never ending, broken health care system. Expensive, immigration full of hassles can't even fix 90 day reporting. Hope you geezers don't need the hospital in the next 2-3 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaccines in use aren't trial medications. All medications have side effects. The odds of severe consequences from any of these vaccines is much much less than the odds of severe consequences if/when infected with Covid-19.

"A lot of the transactions that are being done today will be for 2022 ... because the supply of Moderna vaccine is pretty much exhausted already for 2021," Zuellig CEO John Graham told Reuters." Bought 2 doses from Rayong Hospital June 30, yesterday got confirmation Oct reservation to get jabbed, All pretty straight forward but it sold out like July 5.

No, I was deterred by the fact that at that time they were not even on order, and felt it was simply a money hoovering session by the hospitals. The one I use has, on occasion, been accused of avarice. My backup plan is reduced to a fence and my behind.....

If I were you I would have taken the AZ shot and then taken Moderna or Pfizer as a booster when available rather than wait unvaccinated till your prefered vaccine came in as AZ protects musch better than nothing or Sinovac. I took a shot of AZ , will take another or get Pfizer or Moderna as a booster when available.

You may have paid and reserved a shot of Moderna but there is no guarantee the hospital will have it in Oct. That's why I didn't take it, i.e. I am me, and based on the research I did, it wasn't for me, my decision. You got yours and I am happy for you, your decision. The virus isn't going to kill us, unless we have weak immune systems, suffice to say, if we get it, then we will have antibodies, so no need for a vaccine, I am confident the hospitals will deliver on time, that is why I paid in advance, it's small change considering. If Covid kills me, well, there was no guarantee AZ wouldn't have, and no vaccine is 100% bullet proof, albeit it is alleged that it protects us from serious illness and hospitalisation.

These sales are kept very quiet so farang don't hear A hospital in Thailand taking reservations this week for the Moderna coronavirus vaccine was sold out in minutes - after offering shots via e-commerce platform Shopee. Something sold on an e-commerce platform such as Shopee, could hardly be called a confidential transaction - supply vs demand made it sell in a flash! Nope, I doubt there is any conspiracy theory there, as if there was a balance, anyone can order it even now IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravip Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) To be honest, other than Thailand, there are more countries 'fighting' for the vaccination. Maybe due to corruption etc. But the fact remains that there were some countries who were hoarding the vaccinations. Why? For what reason is the million $ question.
