The demand to get a vaccine out at the beginning of the Covid was so great that they had to develop them and test them and get them gov. approved as fast as possible.In normal times vaccines would be tested over about 5 years before they hit the public. If they didnt fast track the covid vaccs....and we had to wait 5 years how many people would have died in the interim.?? Also bear in mind that they are all certified by the relevent authorities.I have had the A.V. with no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Dwyer Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 FYI Guy behind me , mid 20’s , ( American but lived in Thailand since a child) wanted Pfizer but brought no medical certificate, he has a health issue. Kicked up a fuss that MedPark had not asked for any proof. He got to see a supervisor but never saw him again. Moral of the story: If under 60 and want Pfizer, get a med certificate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Dwyer Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Despite the crowding, actually very well organised. Problem is people standing too close together, plus, a few wanting to jump the queue ( mainly Indians who for some reason have brought the whole family !! ).

Andrew Dwyer Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Of course not discussing the elephant in the room !!

They are restricting the amount entering now as it was pretty crowded, now got to the musical chairs part to get to the paperwork filling part, then onwards, where ? I have no idea . OMG. Probably everything has to be inputed by hand. Its as if Thailand technology was left over from 1985. There WiFi is darned fast though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Bang Sue mine was 165/90 (normally 125/82 ish). The guy in front of me was higher..........we were both processed without any delay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad I suppose, makes a mockery of the appointment system though which seems to have been abandoned. You'd think they'd have learned from the Bang Sue fiasco. I might eve take a stroll over earlier if the mad rush has dies down, maybe leave it until any lunch time bump to the queue length has dies down.

I have a med certificate for these 7 underlying conditions. Do you think you can just go there with a passport? Do they want to see any booking confirmation email?

The worst cases end up on oxygen and ventilators, that's a FACT. Having any type of vaccine recommended by WHO reduces the chances of this happening massively....another FACT.
