RanongCat Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 .Perhaps the above has failed to note that I am not against any voluntary choice to accept yet another dose of a vaccine that now boasts "Better" protection. Quoting various "experts" quoting opposing statistics is irrelevant to my personal considerations. I do not advocate anti vax nor do I subscribe to the Big Pharma indoctrination. Is that unacceptable? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor did I "claim" Fauci was a "part" of Pfizer beyond perhaps as an investor in shares.

Popular Post swm59nj Posted October 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2023 The OP is asking if the vaccine is available. Not for personal opinions about why you will not get it. To the OP. The latest vaccine is not available in Thailand. And from how the protocol goes. Who knows how long it will take to get it if any. There might be some of the previous version available since you haven’t been given a booster for a while. All you can do is contact different hospitals and ask. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's not entirely surprising that they're lagging, at least for now Unfortunately some folks, though residing in Land of Smiles, still think they are in Kansas: "When do we want it? Now" - "Where do we want it? Here. Anyway, the new variant booster is actually available in Kansas, as in other cities in the USA.

Ironically, the EMS alert went off while I was in the vaccination process. No, I am not a zombie. Asked where: On 10/7/2023 at 10:15 AM, Danderman123 said: I flew to the USA. It will eventually make its way to your local clinic, in my case Soi 18 Odum Suk BKK. In the meantime, just take advantage of what 's available wherever you are. If it's been 6 mos or more, then go get another shot, if possible choose a different brand - say Moderna if last one you got was Pfizer, and vice versa. Then go home and pop another bottle of champagne, cause one good turn deserves another - and living well is a slap in the face to those who want you dead. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cdnvic Posted October 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2023 Removed more misinformation. One of the posters above made a very good point. The topic is asking for advice on where to obtain a booster shot, not anyone's opinion on the validity of the science behind them, or the ethics of those involved. Please keep to the original poster's questions and leave more existential arguments for another place. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I planned to return in a year and get an annual Covid booster at the same time as my annual flu shot. To my surprise, Jomtien Hospital, Bangkok Hospital Pattaya, and Pattaya International Hospital are NOT currently offering Covid boosters. This is weird. After all the hysteria of the past few years I assumed Covid boosters would be here to stay in the same way as flu shots are. They are definitely being rolled out and recommended in the USA. Does anyone know why Covid boosters are not being offered by these Pattaya hospitals? And is there a high quality hospital or clinic in the Pattaya area where they are being offered? I’ve never had boosters and I’ve never had a flu shot , I’m rarely sick , and never had Covid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placnx Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 22 hours ago, RanongCat said: There still exists this almost pseudo religious for or against inn the discussion over vaccination and in particular the MRNA vaccines . While so many would defend individual rights but bend to accommodate imposition of initially experimental vaccines, and suppression of so many social freedoms why is there so much angst over the subject when Influenzas, RSV, Malaria, Dengue, Pneumonia variants collectively or individually cause the annual death of millions despite the existence of vaccines or treatment regimes? Given that vaccination does not necessarily prevent potential cross infection because it does not eliminate infection should logically suggest that vaccination should remain voluntary, The social and economic backlash of fascist mandates should be well abandoned in favor of realistic education rather than threat . As of now such legal backlash implications are genuinely the subject of expensive claims. Pfizer stocks were shedding prior to Covid but rebounded extraordinarily with the provision of "emergency use" authorization. Now same stock value is heading towards pre covid vaccine valuation due to legal costs. I am curious enough to wonder if Fauci and Co divested in same and similar as quickly as they have departed from public attention ? I am not actually "anti vax" . I am however suspicious about the evolution of the covid pandemic and the inevitable valid Pfizer stock price is down because the bonanza of vaccine sales is over, not due to being sued. They are facing various patent expirations so until they can get more acquisitions done, the price will be depressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubby Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 they only just became available in the US , last few weeks, apparently Novavax may include more recent strains when / if available ever. Meanwhile I hear they are working on a bivalent flu/cv19 for following years. I just got the Pfizer, i'm under 60, chok dii "researchers" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
