This was arranged by our village head. it’s been possible to get a vaccine shot at the new Khon Kaen Convention Centre for a month or so, they arrange 3 days a week a queue and wait system, however it’s Thais only and your more likely to catch Covid whilst waiting as there is no social distancing being practiced. me over 60 and no underlying issues, I’ve registered on every app ever introduced and heard nothing until last weekend, first was from the old intervac registration offering AZ for 21 August, then Expatvac offered 2 shots of Pfizer first on 5 Sept, 2nd on 24 Sept, so despite all the long delays appears the authorities are finally getting their act together for both Thai Nationals and foreign residents. The local private hospitals have all proved unable to take reservations for private jabs, all stating they’ve no idea when vaccine would be available to provide privately, so I’d be cautious and weary of an hospital who takes your money when they haven’t got a scoobie of what vaccine or when they can take supply of it. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almer Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 23 minutes ago, david555 said: yes , as we are residents in Thailand (emigrated ) by my country (extended tourists by Thailand's means ), but maybe Anutin point to residents living officially in Thailand under the Immigrations rules , but example i do not have address anymore in my country , my E.U. banks registered with my Thai address .... So anyone who have still his official address in his home country (for some personal understandable reasons ..???? ) could be in his understanding not residents in TH....., strange that website has that "Consular" thing in it...? Might it it could they are in contact with the embassy's to see or check if we really are resident in Thailand or can be seen as a tourist ..... to defend the "only Thai " from before and limit vaccines Easy, register, appointment, turn up, passport visa page, go to the left or go to the right and close the door when you leave please.

gunghang Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 For what it's worth, I went to the local hospital three weeks ago to ask about when/where to be vaccinated only to learn that the answer to my question was "here/now." I got Sino-Vac on the spot. Today I got A-Z. For what it's worth, zero reaction each time. I'm an old fart with Parkinson's. I have a pink ID. Staff was very nice to me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if its because of the mistranslated news report about 'dirty' foreigners by the English gutter press.

Popular Post KhonKaenAde Posted August 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2021 5 hours ago, Moonlover said: There is a department in Thailand who should know where every foreigner is residing in Thailand and we all know which one that is. Why do they have to go to the embassies to get this information? They'd get nothing out of the British embassy anyway because they do not have a registration system. Having said that, little old me, up here in the middle of nowhere, received my 1st AZ jab 5 weeks ago and I'm booked for my 2nd one next month. And I'm not the rare exception by a long way. So Anutin seems to be behind the times somewhat. No obligation to register with your home Countries Embassy within Thailand. ao the authorities here are very very focussed on a foreigner reporting every 90 days, so surely that would be a good starting point to find those of us who are here complying with the Government's requirements. So if Auntie and the Authorities haven’t got a register then why do we bother going through the pain of reporting every 90 days? Oh forgot this is Thailand and they’re big on self help and DIY unless you happen to be Thai that is!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife, who is a foreign teacher in Isaan, told me, that the vaccine appoinment was approx. 10 times postoned. Last Monday, the school admin told her, that this Friday she would get her first shot. I told her, I will not believe it. I will only believe, what I see with my own eyes. Guess what? Yesterday, she told me it will be postponed again. That proves everything. Mr. Anutin, talk, but no real actions. Exactly. The dolt is a beacon of incompetence but that's why he fits in so well with the rest of the poseurs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
