Chonburiram Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Where to go to get one? Preferable, tomorrow, Sunday. Eastern Seabord/ Bkk area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 As this is not needed/recommended for travel in Thailand (or in most places except those with an active cholera outbreak) , it may prove hard to find at hospitals though no harm in giving Bangkok Rayong Hosp a call. The place that will definitely have it is the Travel Medicine Clinic at Mahidol Hosp of Tropical medicine, http://www.thaitravelclinic.com/cost.html It is in Bangkok and it is closed on Sundays but looks like an appointment for Monday would be possible, you can make appt online.

Chonburiram Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Thank you Sheryl, Bangkok Rayong no have... looks like a trip to Bangkok is inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 That is what I would expect. You are only going to find this at a clinic that caters to people traveling to other countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMNL Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 To my understanding, it is no longer available in thailand as the Sanofi Pasteur no longer import the product. You might want to call the Travel med center to confirm before going there just to find out the fact they don't have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMNL Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Correct the fact: DKHS sells the vaccine it might be available again after the Sanofi stopped importing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonburiram Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Just for the record: We went to Laem Chabang harbour and the port health officer from the departement of disease control gave us a whole cell oral Cholera vaccine produced from Shanchol, India for 1000 ฿, 2nd dose in 2 weeks, no further costs. He told us every (oceanside) harbour/international airport manned with a health officer can provide vaccination for any kind of disease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
