Vaccination services at Bang Sue Grand Station in Bangkok will be provided to people over 18 years of age and those afflicted with any of the seven underlying diseases, who registered in advance, starting August 1st, Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul announced today (Monday).

 

Currently, people can just walk in to get vaccinated, so many people from Bangkok’s neighboring provinces, such as Suphan Buri and Ratchaburi, have flocked to the railway station to receive the free service, resulting in overcrowding and concerns over the possible spread of COVID-19, according to CCSA assistant spokeswoman, Dr. Apisamai Srirangsan.

 

Anutin said that officials from the Transport Ministry, which owns the railway station, have stepped in to enforce social distancing and to ensure members of the public wear face masks all the times as they wait to be inoculated.  Although walk-in services will still available until end of the month for non-registrants, he said priority will be given to people over 60, those who weigh more than 100kgs and pregnant women.

Farcical... Bangkok centre of the universe.

When are they going to get ample vaccines out to all the provinces so people can get inoculated without having to travel halfway around the country when local government hospitals are easily reached.

MOVE THE VACCINES NOT THE PEOPLE!

They find using common sense difficult here....

And now nobody outside of Bangkok and it's surrounding provinces can get a vaccine appointment or actual jab even if they are in a dark red zone!

If you’re going to bang Sue, make sure you go there before July 31st. 
 

(Please be advised, even if you do go before then, she may not be there!! ????)

From 01 August this facility will operate only on a crawl-in basis.......

Ah, that's cos all the infected have 'gone home' to the provinces. No more people need vaccinating. All done, move on, nothing to see.

 

of all the stupid ideas, this ranks among the highest.

[vinci]

[Captor]

Distancing? Not so much according to the picture. Hopefulle they not get covid when in the vaccine queue..

[lujanit]

Social distancing?  None of that yesterday at Bang Sue.  Thousands  of people at close quarters.

 

Vaccine menu was AZ, nothing else.
