Wuvu2 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I received two doses of Pfizer vaccine in Thailand (August/September 2021). Has anyone yet received a booster (in Thailand) after two Pfizer doses? The press releases from the government is now suggesting a booster after 3 months but unclear about Pfizer boosters.

Henryford Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Wasn't the recommended time for 2 x Pfizers booster 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Don't know about 2 initial Pfizer but I'm scheduled for Pfizer Booster at Bang Sue after 2 Astra jabs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffr2 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Very few places are doing Pfizer boosters for those who've already had 2 jabs. Even if the last jab was over 6 months ago. But, a few places are. You can make reservations on the QueQ app. But I highly recommend calling after you've made an appointment just to make sure. We went to a place yesterday after reading that some had gotten their booster there. No luck. Frustrating. If you're not in a hurry, things should calm down soon.

The CDC in the USA reduced their recommendation to 5 months, so the early Thailand Pfizer recipients would be eligible now or soon. My 2nd shot was Sept 2 so I'd like to get the booster early Feb. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berkshire Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 In Chiang Mai, if you've had 2 jabs of Pfizer, you'll be eligible for a booster after 6 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the bright side, I will soon be 'eligible' to buy and get Moderna. Edited January 19, 2022 by StayinThailand2much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still six months here. I've got the same date, must have been at MedPark the same day? I've got a paid Moderna scheduled for March 3. But looking for a Pfizer option.

Ya, but Thailand often follows USA CDC (I think that's how Thailand came up with 6 months). Maybe well get some news here soon. I wrote to MedPark a few days ago and they have not answered - usually they answer quickly so maybe they are expecting a change soon. I think I remember you at MedPark - you are about my age and you were wearing a mask right? ???? Edited January 19, 2022 by Wuvu2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but there is a shortage here, and getting mRNA into sino/AZ 2X takes precedence, I think. Can't see the authorities moving it one month, but who knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I am in Pattaya and heard today that if you have had 2 x Pfizer you will be contacted to have a 3rd jab 6 months after you had your 2nd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
