We await details of the victim. Situation will become clearer soon, but reports from S. Africa still go along with mild symptoms still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's a loss, but it's being used to help justify more controls. Surely we should be told if it was someone who tested +ve for Omicron, but died of something else, or someone killed by Omicron? These are very different things. Being suspicious, I think it's the first one, if he'd died of Covid, it would be all over the news, in detail.

A push to get the non vaccinated to come forward, and a push to get Thais who were double vaccinated with Sinovac to have a Pfizer booster. But nothing for foreigners. Having had my second AZ at the end of September, my recommended time to get one is around end of March (six months) it's been brought forward to 3 months I believe both in Europe and here. I might start a thread on it to get more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, you have two choices: 1) Wait with palm open 2) Buy a shot of Moderna from a private hospital, and there are a lot of people selling their Moderna shots at the moment, for example on Bangkok Hospital Facebooks because they recently received free government doses and they cannot push their shots forward 6 months as a booster, only 3 months. If you pick up a vial for 3,000, and sell one dose for 1,500 baht, it only costs you 1,500 baht to get a booster, that said, I know what I would be doing. The Thais first for jabs is complete and utter rubbish spouted by the they all hate us brigade so stop talking nonsense, farangs have been well looked after with regards to Covid Jabs 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without a boost both of us are very likely to be infected with Omicron. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can remember it was Thai's first, lots of people reporting that they were turned away when they went to get vaccinated, yes there were some that got looked after, i.e. those who were accepted and wanted to get Sinovac, to be honest I was offered AZ in June, there was a lot of back peddling by the Thai's about it was all a miscommunication, but knocked it back for other reasons, not because they offered it to me. The above said, if I recall correctly a heck of a lot of expats receive Pfizer from a US donation, if memory serves me it was something like 3/4 of a million doses ? No one is suggesting they hate us, but I will point out one thing, if you can kindly remove your blinkers, do I consider Thailand to be a multicultural country like, for example, the UK, USA, AUS ? Only 200 Citizenships per year. No permanent residency/spouse visa's, only annual extensions. Now why do you think that is, when the 3 countries I mentioned above willing provide Citizenships and permanent residency/spouse visa's for those who apply, without limitations of course. Knock yourself out, the floor is yours. Edited December 14, 2021 by 4MyEgo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polaky Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Walked into Bang Sue station today for a Booster, no appointment, I had 2 AstraZeneca back in Oz right on 6 months ago, I wanted moderna, the first counter I was directed to said moderna is not available but Pfizer is, at my insistence they sent me to another section, once again I got the message that Pfizer was my only choice, after further explanation and insistence I was directed to a third section and there I got my first dose of moderna, they scheduled an appointment mid January for my second shot, just a little advise for anyone that has not been there before, go with someone who speaks Thai, there are q's everywhere and quite chaotic, I would have been totally lost without .

This totally ad hoc issue of vaccines/boosters is worrying Rayong is issuing them Bang Sue is doing similar but only for those originally injected there Meanwhile Vaccinated with SIN july AZ August in PKK Visited Prachuap general hospital today no vaccines no injection's and no one knows anything about boosters Initially they were excellent but today was a wasteland there seemed like all vaccine staff and vaccines had gone Remaining staff just shrugged their shoulders even covid information desk was closed seemed nobody know anything there today 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because, you indicated here you had your original two shots outside of Thailand. And the records they use here inside Thailand only reflect the injections done here. So as far as the Thai MoPH records system linked to your passport number was concerned, you were getting your first shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
