Hi. I would like to get advice on couple of questions regarding covid vaccination.
1/ Anyone here know the duration of each vaccine brands' 1st to 2nd dos duration?
I am asking this because I plan to go home hoping by early next year (hoping situation would be more stabilize by then). I heard some Thais who got Astra 1st dos and 2nd is scheduled 3 mths later. Some Astra got 2nd dos as 1 mth later. While some Sinovac 2nd dos is few weeks apart. So, I wonder if the Gov is having a proper/solid/more organised plan for the vaccination. I would like to make sure that I manage to catch up with the vaccination properly before leaving Thailand.

2/ Do they allow us to choose the vaccine brand? Or is there any way one could get a choice (eg health condition etc). (Provided that they available)

3/ As for now, is vaccination the only way to enter a country? Does any country allows anyone without vaccination to enter? (After all, compulsary quarantine is still on. What's the different of one with/without vaccination?)

 

4/ Please advise procedure to get a vaccinated document for travelling purposes. (Understand that we need to request for a English version document which is only given by request).

Thank you in advance.

if you get az now you will get the second in about 10-12 weeks. They were doing it 16 weeks for a short while.

Sinovac approved by who, but not many countries accept it. No point having it for purpose of travel, unless china or asia.

 

they allow preference for vax, but don't give guarantee

Exactly 12 weeks at Bangkok Pattaya hospital.

A friend got his AZ shot yesterday. Next appointment November 2.
 

Regarding 3) - the variation is so wide for each country. If you know where you are going, then Google "entry requirements" for that country. Also, the requirements change, depending on the virus situation in the country from which you travel from/to.
