Popular Post DudleySquat Posted December 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2023 (edited) My ex-wife just got remarried, and she needs to prove to the USA that she has a Covid shot . Get Sinopharm, but that isn't on the USA list of approved shots. Novovax is approved and not mRNA. Where can it be found in Thailand? https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-the-novavax-covid-vaccine-better-than-mrna-vaccines-what-we-know-so-far/ Edited December 30, 2023 by Rimmer Unattributed ref to MRNA poison removed 2 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat is a type of crazy Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 (edited) Delete. Was going to recommend Astrazeneca approved in Australia but apparently not in United States.

Not sure but it was apparently manufactured in Thailand according to Google. Might be easier than the other option - hopefully others know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post eyeman Posted December 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2023 Quote As of May 12, 2023, noncitizen nonimmigrant visitors to the U.S. arriving by air or arriving by land or sea no longer need to show proof of being fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Are you sure it's needed? Most countries dropped the clot shot entry requirements a long time ago. 2 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was going to recommend Astrazeneca approved in Australia but apparently not in United States. I was going to recommend suggesting that she crosses the border like the last 1 million 'migrants.' The pluses are significant: No need for shots or other health and screenings, free healthcare, free smartphone, free money, free transportation to wherever in the US that a "walk-across" can hold up while consulting with immigration lawyers. It might be easier than attempting to do it the old fashion way. Just saying. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 (edited) Quite probably, any government hospital. Private hospitals are only interested in selling expensive mRNA shots. OTOH, government hospitals work with the cheapest pharmaceutical they can find. Edited December 29, 2023 by Lacessit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You assume incorrectly that the price is low, and yet you admit that you do not have any facts. Why should anyone engage you? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrules Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I am very surprised this is still required as it's not required for general entry to the country any more since about May. If you really want to avoid it I would wait a year or two - these vaccines probably won't exist at all by then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will look for ways around it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DudleySquat Posted December 29, 2023 Author Share Posted December 29, 2023 Medical Examination and Vaccination Requirements In preparing for the interview, applicants will need to schedule and complete a medical examination. Before the issuance of an immigrant or K visa, every applicant, regardless of age, must undergo a medical examination which must be performed by an authorized panel physician. You will be provided instructions regarding medical examinations from the U.S. Embassy or Consulate where you will apply for your visa, including information on authorized panel physicians. See Medical Examination for more information, including a list of panel physicians by country, and frequently asked questions. K visa applicants are encouraged to get the vaccinations required under U.S. immigration law for immigrant visa applicants. Although such vaccinations are not required for K visa issuance, they will be required when adjusting status to that of legal permanent resident. Applicants are therefore encouraged to fulfill these vaccination requirements at the time of the medical examination. See Vaccination Requirements for IV Applicants for the list of required vaccinations and additional information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DudleySquat Posted December 29, 2023 Author Share Posted December 29, 2023 Vaccinations Important Notice to Immigrant Visa Applicants Concerning Vaccination Requirements United States immigration law requires immigrant visa applicants to obtain certain vaccinations (listed below) prior to the issuance of an immigrant visa. Panel physicians who conduct medical examinations of immigrant visa applicants are required to verify that immigrant visa applicants have met the vaccination requirements, or that it is medically inappropriate for the visa applicant to receive one or more of the listed vaccinations: COVID-19 Hepatitis A Hepatitis B Influenza Influenza type b (Hib) Measles Meningococcal Mumps Pneumococcal Pertussis Polio Rotavirus Rubella Tetanus and diphtheria toxoids Varicella In order to assist the panel physican, and to avoid delays in the processing of an immigrant visa, all immigrant visa applicants should have their vaccination records available for the panel physician's review at the time of the immigrant medical examination. Visa applicants should consult with their regular health care provider to obtain a copy of their immunization record, if one is available. If you do not have a vaccination record, the panel physician will work with you to determine which vaccinations you may need to meet the requirement. Certain waivers of the vaccination requirement are available upon the recommendation of the panel physician. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should anyone engage you? My post is based on experience. I had COVID in 2021. My quarantine and treatment in a government provincial hospital was free. I doubt the same would have applied in any private hospital. At the time, I was on CoDiovan blood pressure medication. The hospital substituted Losartan. When I asked why, I was told we only dispense the cheapest generics available. You won't know whether non-mRNA vaccines are available at a public hospital until you ask. Since my posts are obviously unwelcome, I won't try to help you again. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaSam Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 So you told your ex-wife not to take an American vaccine, but to go for the Chinese. Hmmm.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
