expatvac does not require you to be over 60yrs ,  MedPark Hospital does.

Over 60 so I am in the priority group as mentioned on the website.

You keep saying “ got an email “ as if it is something new !! ( on 2 different threads )

95% of us “got an email “ from [email protected] with a link to registration then an email confirming that registration from [email protected] and most of us got this on Sunday 11th !! Stop confusing the issue with your one liners !!

 

Confirmation of a booking for date and location will come via a SMS message and, to my knowledge, have not been sent out yet, probably this weekend or Monday would be my guess.

Registered on 1st, received a confirmation email immediately, received another mail on 3rd with a link for an appointment on 6th at Bang Sue.  Taking someone to another hospital on 6th so not available, the appointment link gives you the opportunity to request an alternative date (but once only), did that, now waiting for alternative appointment.

How far are you from Bang Sue, I assume it's local to you?

I think you are the outlier.

 

AFAIK, no one, anywhere, has yet received the "appointment email".

 

DCA spokesman Tanee Sangrat said that appointments and administration of vaccines has been turned over to the MoPH.

 

And that he expects appointments to be issued soon for vaccinations on or after 10 or 11 August.

Outlier on this forum on this thread maybe, we've no idea how many have registered who've never even heard of, let alone use, Asean Now and who have also had appointments. The handover may well be the reason for the delay in sending the second appointment, either that or they're waiting until Pfizer is available, that would also allow them to divert any remaining AZ earmarked for expats to non-expat use.  All merely guesses at the end of the day though.

Sure we do...

 

Being an outlier can be a good thing.

 

But I have yet to see any appointments mentioned, other than yours, anywhere (not just here).

 

I'm sure you have an appointment for today. It's just that it may not be the result of expatvac? Maybe an intervac registration got pushed directly to MoPH?

Thanks. I scanned that video and missed this.

 

Although it is confusing. Do you reply to the SMS? That would be a first. Yes, CVC-MOPH has delivered appointment details via SMS, for earlier registrations.

 

I haven't seen an SMS, nor an email.

The appointment WAS from Expat Intervac.  I could post the images but I'm blowed if I'm doing it again just because someone wants to try and convince themselves it came from somewhere else. There is yet another thread lower down about Expatvac registrations with further details and an image if anyone wishes to look. I had an appointment via the old Intervac too, on 27th July, again at Bang Sue, when it was Covid Central.  Decided not to go for that due to the massive overcrowding.

 

Truth is neither you, I or anyone outside of MFA/MOPH have the slightest idea how many appointments have been successfully issued via the Expat Intervac site and any suggestion to the contrary is just BS theorising.  Trying to 'validate' that by reference to posts on this forum, other forums or any other source (particularly the bitch and whinge 'nothing works' sources that seem to be prevalent at the moment) is just further 'pie in the sky' supposition unsupported by any evidence.

 

Part of the problem with posting any information here is that you find yourself having to go out of your way to convince terminal disbelievers who seem to able to find, or want to find, problems at every single step of the way.  I've no interest in trying to convince people who want to convince themselves that it's all doom and gloom for registering and getting vaccinated, I prefer to put the effort into arranging it and then getting on with life.

Whoa there. Unbunch those panties.

 

I BELIEVE you.

 

Calling you an outlier means that I know you have an appointment, but that you are the only one.

 

I did not ask for "images".

 

Sheesh, defensive much.

 

You may not pass the BP station with all that pent up anger?

Whatever.  Not defensive and believe me, it will take much much more than some random internet nobody on a forum to make me angry.  Don't confuse people getting bored with the relentless negativity and, despite NOT having the facts, the desire of some people to interpret things in a way that fit's THEIR version of events with anger.

 

Despite having told you the facts you seemed to be determined to convince yourself (and others) that the appointment I had didn't come from Expatvac.  Quite why you need to dispute a person's account by posting your own BS theories with zero evidence whatsoever is beyond me. You didn't ask for images but equally you clearly didn't want to believe the facts when I told you what they were, intent instead on spinning your own narrative, so quite how else someone is supposed to convince a determined disbeliever I've no idea.  From other posts though you seem intent on seeing problems and anticipating the worst at every juncture so I suppose it shouldn't come as a surprise.  One thing that is certain though, what you do, think or whatever is of zero interest to me.  I've posted my experience, people can make of it what they do.  Added to ignore list.

Over 60 so I am in the priority group as mentioned on the website.

Someone asked me to relay my experiences. This is my original posting.

(I registered at 10-55 am on Sunday 1st got confirmation on the 2nd that my application was approved got my appointment time sent on the 3rd for Friday 6th at 2 pm. A great service.)

 

I had not received an SMS but went anyway as the previous email listed my appointment time. No traffic so was there by 1pm was seated straight away outside under cover after a few minutes we were moved to the next area sat for a couple of minutes then went inside. I went to get my passport checked then my blood pressure I said I was early but it was not a problem. Then walked to the nurse the vaccine was Astra Zenica injection done repeat appointment given for the 29^th October then to a waiting area for 30 mins then left at 2pm. Really well organised but the building Bang Sue was a bit cold for me LOL good for Thais though. I am 67 but I do not think age was a problem

[chilly07]

I find it impossible to follow all these websites through. I have registered on all I have seen including Thailand Intervac and Expatvac and  which I think in their case refers on to hospital s to confirm appointments.

 So far I have appointments with MedPark BNH and one arranged by British Chamber of Commerce (due to Embassy inaction) at Bangrak plus one arranged direct with Bangkok Pattaya which is the one I will be using to avoid the risk of traveling. All v confusing. Still expecting other confirmations by SMS and email. My wife hasn't been able to get any confirmations despite registering on all Thai sites so I really can't complain

From another thread, and the same info that was also given in a previous article:

Earlier, Mr Tanee said that he expects people to start receiving vaccine appointment dates from August 10 and 11.

Today is the 6th.

I got an appointment on the expats vaccination website for the 12th, but I cancelled it. I received the email reply within 2 days. I don't live in Bangkok and I'm not going to travel there either (9,700 new infections yesterday), or stand for hours in a crowded Bangsue railway station. I've seen the back-to-back and closely packed lines on TV. They don't seem to give you a choice of vaccine, and I expect they'll give Sinovac + AZ.  Sinovac is ineffective.

I had my jab today at Bang Sue in and out 1 hour no crowds and seating at at all stages read my comments. Great service and well organised for westerners.
