"Hospitals will receive the partial delivery of the COVID-19 vaccine made by Moderna in the fourth quarter of this year and they will equally have 40% of their order." It is also available to Thais if they are married to a French person or the children of one. Edited October 5, 2021 by Tropicalevo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. My point was that foreigners are well looked after, despite some of the paranoid ones thinking that they were put to the back of the queue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact they are also providing it for Thai wife’s and children???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scouse123 Posted October 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2021 1 hour ago, Neeranam said: I was talking about Pfizer. Pfizer was donated by the USA and when I was vaccinated in Kalasin both Foreigners and Thais were receiving the vaccine. You must understand that the Thai government had opportunities long ago to either purchase direct and to join a Covax scheme of nations, in order to purchase these vaccines. They declined and thought they knew better by ordering vast quantities of Sinovac from the Chinese. They then realized that the Chinese vaccines were not as good, and went back to the Pfizer and Johnson and Johnson producers, by which time Thailand is way down the queue. Thailand has received free help and donations of vaccines from the USA, UK, and EU to help ALL its citizens. Thailand had to be told in strong terms that these vaccines had been donated free and to be distributed fairly to all people residing in Thailand, not only Thais, (which is what some hospitals had been stating, Thais only or Thais first! ) which then lead to them changing course and treating foreigners equally, not favorably! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This initiative is organized, and paid, by the French Government for the French & their Relatives (who could be Thai). Why did the French organize it? Because the Thai didn't score very well (understatement!) re. Covid Vaccination. Clearer? Edited October 5, 2021 by Fab5BKK 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the explanations from other people above, I hope that you understand now that this vaccination campaign is paid by French government for French people and their spouses-husbands, even if they are not French ; it's not a question of " firsts for foreigners " 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also a question to ask here : could it be that the French embassy arranged their own supply of vaccines to be shipped from abroad, in which case all that noise about "the Thai gvt favouring foreigners" becomes irrelevant? I could well imagine that embassies could do that, with the assent of the Thai gvt of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EU countries have been using Covid-19 vaccines since Jan 2021. https://covidtracker.fr/vaccintracker/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/1196071/covid-19-vaccination-rate-in-europe-by-country/ In comparison, Thailand didn't score that well re. Covid 19 vaccination. Therefore, some foreign governments stepped in by giving free vacc to Thailand and organizing their own vacc events here in Thailand. From mid-June 2021, France started to organizing vaccination for its citizens living in Thailand and, then, extended the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codemonkey Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Sweden is restricting moderna to people over 30. Apparently it's dangerous if you are 29, but not if you are 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codemonkey Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I also heard today that Thailand will offer moderna and AZ booster shots, like where is the rational for that? Does the Thai establishment have a clue? That's diabolical, totally irresponsible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaichina Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I got the first dose of moderna this morning in Bangkok hospital, Bangkok. Very well organised, very efficient and very proffessional. I will get the second dose on 8th of november, looking forward to it. So far no side effect for me and my wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fab5BKK Posted October 12, 2021 Author Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) Regarding Bangkok Hospital in Bangkok, the Hospital to go to is Bangkok Hospital International (next to Bangkok Hospital main building). When you arrive at the building, you just need to follow the signs. BIH Location.pdf Edited October 12, 2021 by Fab5BKK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
