Flu Season

[Mekong Bob]

Where can I go to find info on the flu season(s) in Chiang Mai and the price and availability of flu shots in the area?

You could contact Dr Morgan at Hang Dong Medical Health Care Centre just 400 m south of Tesco on Hang Dong Rd 053 804405.

Friend of mine had a shot last week,forget the exact price but was not expensive.

Dr Morgan emailed her patients with a reminder some weeks back, but if we had a fly shot earlier this year, no need for this one.

However, it's just taken me 2 weeks to get over a cough/cold/bronchitis which was not enjoyable. Seems to be going around.

Wish I'd been there! Got it again 2nd time in 3 weeks.

Do you need an appointment at Dr. Morgan's clinic, or can you just walk in ?

[Saan]

Does Dr Morgan have flue shots in stock or should one book? Also is the pneumonia vaccination available - it is generally given as one shot? Thanks.

[sfokevin]

I think you could just walkin... They are very friendly... or you Google Dr Morgan Chiang Mai and you will find her website... The website has a contact email where you can send question or make appointment... They understand English but they may take a day or two to check email...

Dr Morgan's number is 082 766 8672, its always best to make an appointment, she does get quite busy

[mesquite]

Thanks sfo and ThaiP. Her website implies an appt is necessary, but the process appears quite complicated if using the form (send form that allows for only a general time, wait a day, then they call you). I'll just call them.

I walked in this morning, no appt, and got the shot right away. A nurse jabs you, not Dr Morgan.

There Is one shot for the over sixty crowd and on for those under. Because of poor immune response the over 60 is 4times stronger. Lancet published today that for we old it is only 25-50% fully effective.

24,000 died in the USA last year from the flu. 90% were over 60. sucks.

Be sure you get the correct one for your age.
