After the closure of the COVID-19 vaccination centre at Bang Sue Grand Station at the end of this month, members of the public can still get free vaccinations at the Institute of Dermatology, near the Victory Monument in Bangkok.

 

Free inoculation is available to people of all nationalities from 5-years-old every Saturday in October, starting this Saturday from 9am until 3pm. Children will be given the Pfizer vaccine (purple or orange cap).

 

Appointments can be made in advance through https://covid19.iod.go.th/vaccine, or just walk in.

If true, quite a generous move for those interested in being vaccinated but I am really wary of the term "all nationalities"

Does that mean access to everyone or access to official residents ?

 

Not that I need  nor want it but I would not be eligible although spending most of the year in Thailand

So this is quite generous of them

In the European countries I know, they do not vaccine non residents. Even paying for the shots ( one country in particular)

Remember that these mRNA vaccines have a fairly short shelf life, so this is likely to be something like a clearance sale, "Everything must go."

 

Either they stick the stuff in people's arms or they chuck it in the bin.

I am 74 English and have received 4 Vac Shots up here in CM over the course of this year.
