Thailand’s largest vaccination centre, at Bangkok’s Bang Sue Grand Station, will continue to provide a free COVID-19 inoculation service to the public until the end of September, instead of the end of this month as earlier announced.

 

Dr. Mingkwan Wichaidit, head of the vaccination centre, said today (Thursday) that the extension of the service has been approved by the Medical Services and Disease Control departments, because there are still people arriving at the centre, especially for booster shots.

 

She added that the extension of the service is in line with the Ministry of Public Health’s decision to change the status of COVID-19 from “dangerous infectious disease” to “infectious disease under watch” in October.

I wonder how much they will charge once this expires

As long as people turn up I think it will be extended again.

I don't think it means they will start charging for it after that as it has always been free.  More like they will shut the Bang Sue centre down and you will have to get your (free) boosters elsewhere.

Is the vax centre at Bang Rak Medical Centre 11th floor (St Louis BTS) still operating?
