Are Flu Shots avalable in Thailand?

[GaryB1263]

Are they and when if you know? I leave for the US soon and I wanted to get it out of the way if possible.

I am not interested in discussions about efficacy. I am interested in getting a high powered? flu shot soon.

Thanks in advance

Flu shots seem to be available from hospital year-round but the type varies by the time of year - believe now the Northern hemisphere version will be available so same as would get in US but you should confirm that with doctor. As for high power do not believe the stronger old age version is available if that is what you mean.

Thanks lop. Going to the US Tuesday. I didn't want to get the shot while traveling. The shots have made me a little sick at first. I guess I will hold out till I return in October.

Is it called "Northern hemisphere version"? because Thailand is Northern hemisphere. Equator starts somewhere south of Singapore.
