Hence, countries have taken different approaches where the second booster is concerned. They should consult our esteemed Heath Minister Anutin I'm sure he could Clearly explain all the medical reasons. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW - anyone with a UK NHS number can now have overseas Covid shots added to their UK vaccination record. There used to be a requirement also to be registered with a UK GP, but not now. I just added a Thai AZ shot from last year so I have all my shots on one record. On the NHS APP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

internationalism Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 because of sinovac (and sinopharm), which were the first used in thailand, boosters started to be given as early as august 2021 (that was 650k for medics taken from 1.5mln pfizer donated by the usa). to travel internationally those 2 chinese vaxes are not accepted (in europe only to 9 countries, and still conditional). my european vax application (integrated with data from thailand) doesn't allow me to get the second booster yet. If there is yet another wave I would consider. Possibly then there would be the second generation moderna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if they recommended you take a Booster every month would you take one? I am almost 70,had 2 shots of Pfizer,and unless i require any more to travel,then i am finished,i also decline the annual flu jab,as i never get the flu,so i don't pre-empt trying to fix something that aint broken! 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't going to. Cut the FUD. I'm looking forward to an omicron specific booster when one becomes available or even one of the new, more universal vaccinations. I don't want to suffer lifelong debilitation or worse from this once in a century pandemic and not falling for the idiotic anti vax nonsense.

dinsdale Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Denmark where people are tripple jabbed has stopped it's vax program. Personally I have had 2 my last one about 6 months ago so probably waned considerabley. How the memory cells are going who knows. I would also be keen to know about my anti-body status but kits are not available. Not sure if they even exist. Not sure about getting a 3rd but a 4th seems unnecessary. Hospitalisations and deaths are going down rapididly everywhere and are nothing like Delta. This is way less severe. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harveyg Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 2 hours ago, 4MyEgo said: Yeh nah, I'm sitting on the fence, 3 Pfizer jabs should do me fine, although I will look at things in August when it will be 6 months since I received my 1st booster, that said, prior to my 1st booster, I did a blood test which showed that the antibodies were waning so got the 1st booster, just to be sure, to be sure as Paddy told me. What the government isn't telling people is that our T-cells should take over when and if we do get this virus, and of course we should survive it if we have been vaccinated. They are also failing to advise us of the downside of getting too many doses, i.e. that it can do to our immune system as many top Dr's in their fields of immunology and virology have said. Did I mention Anutin is not qualified in his elected position and that the WHO have got this one right thus far IMO. 1 hour ago, TooMuchTime said: We can't talk about that bro.

Caldera Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I don't know yet. If it ever becomes a requirement for travel or if a booster is being sold that offers improved protection against current variants, I might get one. As of now, no plans.

Harveyg Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Another thing to consider is what another poster alluded to, namely, the possible long term effects of vaccine. Are there any? Do a google search such as "Autoimmune disease following 1, 2, or 3 covid vaccines." Or, "Autoimmune disease following covid vaccination in South Korea." Or whatever you like. It seems there are some questions. There are also two 8-9 episode docuseries presently available that inform this whole situation that you may find interesting and/or helpful. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more vaccines for me. If this is correct it seems you dodged a bullet by getting vaccinated. It's amazing how many people didn't get very sick so they downplay the role of the vaccine when it was clear that the vaccine likely saved them from a much worse fate.

Guderian Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 6 hours ago, webfact said: In Thailand, the government is encouraging people to get the fourth jab and has opened several channels for them to get their shot for free. Yes, for those vaccinated at Bang Sue, but what about the millions of others who weren't? I haven't heard a whisper in Pattaya about the government giving a free second booster, only the usual rapacious private hospital charging three times as much as a hospital in the capital would for a half-dose of Moderna.

Actually the 2nd wasn't the booster as the dosage levels given were halved if you like, so the 1st booster was the 2nd shot, the 2nd booster was the 3rd shot. The above said, I have had two shots (one full dose) and a half dose (1st booster, 2nd shot).
