Opening soon..... any good odds it is not open by 11.15?

I've already registered using the site. Warning, maybe I'm stupid but I had difficulty filling in date of birth, it's done by calendar, click on to the date given, August 2021, and click the years back to year of birth then chose month and then day in the calendar, I made a right mess of it 3 times before I figured it out.

Now one little question, Seeing the government ordered these millions of Pfizer vaccines can I register for them and get my jabs at my public hospital as there are no private hospitals in my area? Or is this site just for Chinese vaccines?

I could not find details of the specific vaccine being offered, someone told me it was AZ... hearsay. I have no idea what the closest hospital to to your location might be.... also if public or private.... I have no idea which hospital would be used even for my location.

Anyone had a date yet?

I've had my first - got through on the original intervac site - so I can't use this.  What I would like is to be able to see the appointment for my second online somewhere, then I would be happier that it's actually going to happen.

I had the same problem with two files, so solution is to select both files (hold down ctrl key) and drag and drop both at same time.

Yes, I saw that posted by another, but too late now. (Files were not in the same folder).

Same here, I just hope one file is behind the other.

How about showing the correct method of wearing a face mask, typical.

I still expect vaccinations for foreigners here to get listed on Ebay and I am prepared to bid high! ????

At 9PM Aug 1, 16,935 registered w/ expatvac, 13,884 are under 60 yrs old, and only 3,051 are 60 and over. Of those registered, 64 are pregnant and 946 are in 7-health conditions grps. Many more are being processed and pending required docs. TQ on behalf of MFA Expatvac Team.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a fair number of duplicate or even triplicate applications in that lot!

Correct, I now have 3 more emails with the link to the registration form, all of which which I will ignore so they should expire.

 

I think not a good Idea to register more than once.

 

Now if they are correct it puts me in the top 5% priority group. Over 60 and underlying conditions.

This is the third time I've registered in different places, including my local hospital. And then nothing. I'm over 60. My wife, who registered at the same time and is not over 60, was contacted and offered Sinovac, which she refused. Under the rules, and IF foreigners are being treated equally, I should have been contacted first. Maybe they just didn't want to inflict the Chinese junk on me, which is possible.

Have to admit to doing 2.

Had problems with the two photos and sent it off with only one.

Figured it out and did another registration with both photos.

( both on iPhone).

But of course will only accept one confirmation email and the other will be cancelled if not replied to in 24 hrs.

Me too. If it was simple, if it was done the same way that every other registration in the known universe is done, it wouldn't be Thailand, would it.

i think you'll  get VIP treatment  when you arrive because your 97 yrs  old 

but the other .... well maybe you get a dummy on arrival ....

Not via extravac. Waiting for email.

 

On the MedPark registration system, you choose a specific day/date and time slot (30 minutes). So yes, have one there.

when it comes to entering DOB had to go back on their calendar Month by Month for 70 yrs !!

Trick is to click on the Year header, that should allow you to change the year itself first.

I got through very quickly yesterday at 11:20 am Sunday. I live in Ubon Ratchathani. My problem was in the visa section. I have no visa as I am a permanent resident (PR). Thee was no category for those with PR. Last night, at about 8 pm, I received an email saying the site had recerived my email address and I should proceed with registering. I replied that there was no category for those with PR. This morning I clicked into the site and found that PR had been added. A few minutes later I successfully completed the registration.  Even though I am 71 years of age, I don't hold out much hope of receiving a  vaccination from registering at this site. 

[csmith]

Successfully registered …. But do not want either of the two Chinese vaccines ….

==============

 

“Your registration for the FIRST dose of COVID-19 vaccination is successful.
Once available appointment slot is sent to your email, please confirm within 24 hours.

Failure to confirm within 24 hours will result in the cancellation of your preregistration.

 

For those residing in provinces other than Bangkok and neighbouring provinces (Nakorn Pathom, Nonthaburi, Pathum Thani, Samut Prakan and Samut Sakhon), the Ministry of Public Health will assign a vaccination site in your area.

 

Your vaccination allocation will be provided according to priorities set by the Ministry of Public Health, i.e. age group, vulnerability, high risk zone e.t.c”

With regard to the MedPark site (not for me as it's in Bangkok), where is their Pfizer stock coming from?

 

As far as I recall the only Pfizer in the country is the USA donation being distributed on the new expatvac site, unless they have been able to grab some.

 

Could be another if it's too good to be true it probably is? I hope not.

 

Or perhaps as they seem very professional they have been asked to supplement this effort.. Their eligibility criteria matched the expatvac if you read past the confusing information.

The Pfizer that is currently being distributed is all coming from an allotment of 500,000 doses donated by the US.  This includes the vaccines being offered by MedPark.
