Sheryl Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 As above - this is the very end of flu season in Thailand, in Thailand flu season starts in early May. Also government hospitals might not offer it to other than the elderly. Private should be no problem at any age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is the time for a Pneumonia shot then? and would it be recommendable for me? I am in OK health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Season does not matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some you are unlikely to find much more than cosmetics. Believe most private hospitals have Northern Hemisphere flu vaccine available this time of the year but as said Southern is indicated in about April as rainy season starts. Expect with the lack of international travel/visitors Northern version may be limited currently. Hope you already have the shingles shot as most effective Shingrix not yet available here - but probably worthwhile getting Zostavax if you have not had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
