Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted December 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 17, 2021 So have they actually put this in writing and are they ding the boosters at 3 months as stated in an article last week? inquiring minds want to know? Will the location you obtained the 2 AZ vaccines be scheduling the boosters or are you on your own to find a site and show them your vaccination certificate? Article leaves a lot out of what the actual terms and conditions are except for who jabbed with what already gets what booster vaccine. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jossthaifarang Posted December 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 17, 2021 <deleted> hell, they really are just making this <deleted> up as they go. Talk about winging it!

Popular Post Chaichara Posted December 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 17, 2021 I can understand the concerns of expats wishing to get some reliable information. I'll never understand however why Thai Visa forums in all the 15 years I've followed them (I don't post much) are so full of conjecture, misinformation, and general BS, much of which causes people to worry unnecessarily even more. No appointment, no waiting, walk-in vaccinations in the government clinics in the remotest sub-districts with a choice of at least 3 vaccines, and absolutely free. No visas required (the staff don't even know what one is), just a passport or national ID card for filling out the certificate. I was first quoted ฿2,500.00 per jab at Bangkok Hospital, and to queue for an hour. Why not take a nice drive out of the city to a quiet little town or tambon like I did. If you don't want a situation like the UK's total chaos - OK, so they are one of the most vaccinated countries in the world, but they have one of the highest mortality rates per capita, but what an administrative mess - get yourselves done today. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigz Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Worse than a mix and match candy shop. First got sinovac, second astra now they want to give me Pfizer on the 20th. I really need to go to Europe next summer I'm not sure they'll accept such a cocktail of vacs for quarantine free travel. I wish they just gave me 2 shots of astra or 2 Pfizer. Hopefully will not turn out to be a complete waste of time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
