This morning, many people, including the elderly, again arrived at Bang Sue Grand Station to receive their jabs.

The second, third and fourth gates are for people who have registered on the Mohpromt platform and mobile networks. Previously, many people lined up outside the building, waiting to receive the vaccine. Each zone is now clearly separate, with chairs and tents provided to those waiting for their shots, and officials are providing assistance and making sure that everyone is seated. People at the vaccination center said they were happy with the orderliness because the zones are clearly marked and they don’t have to wait too long.

hotchilli Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I'm foreign, living outside of Bangkok, aged 60+ no underlying symptoms. I am not traveling to Bang sue to get vaccinated. My local government hospital has on 3 occasions told me I cannot register there and must wait for further notifications from the government health ministry.

Cat Boy Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 15 hours ago, internationalism said: strictly not for foreigners, under any circumstances.

I got my AZ vaccination at Bumrungrad International Hospital in Bangkok, probably the best hospital in Thailand and among the most expensive, and it, the vaccination was free, as will be the 2nd dose in mid-October. Keep informed. Consult your doctor or hospital of record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
internationalism Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) so I have to believe forum members with tens of posts, who suddenly appear on boards to prise vaccination program for foreigners, while being active with 5 posts yearly. In your speedy rebuttals you both missed to read the article - registration starts only today. Has to do with Bang Sue and not any hospital. I am healthy, don't need for doctors in the most expensive private hospital (anyway, my insurance doesn't cover that and all similar rip-off hospitals). This hospital is able to get vax for their patients only because they have high connections at ministry of health (read - give premium bribes). There is no any other explanation why young and healthy are able to get jab there, but not sick seniors in some other hospitals Edited July 29, 2021 by internationalism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Tracy Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 It's ok. We foreigners don't matter...yet. Until we start clogging up the Thai hospital systems with being seriously ill. Or perhaps clogging up the temples and back gardens waiting to be cremated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinovac or not just get it if you have a chance, you can always take alternative later when its available. if you're talking about 60 and above some people got vaccinated already, but if you're talking about 60 under most people cannot get vaccinate, i think this one you can register as a foreigner Edited July 29, 2021 by vinci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
