Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
Still nothing for Samitivej for private vaccination.
eMail received last night.
Greetings from Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital.
We regret to inform you that currently we are not open for registration and COVID vaccine is not available at our hospital at this moment.
We still do not have information on exactly when, which vaccine(s) will be available to us, how many doses we will be able to procure, or what the price of each dose will be at this point in time. When the information becomes clearer, we will be sure to keep you updated with the details.
We thank you for your understanding and patience in the matter very much.
Best regards,
Thanarat Pichetsuntorn
Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital
Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
It’ll be October according to this article before private hospital supplies are available. I’m assuming they mean 2021 ;)

Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
Well, some progress -- maybe.
I followed a link (forget where from) that took me to a site where I could register online. Oh, it's called intervac. http://www.thailandintervac.com Amongst other things it lists there, vaccines (2 available now and 2 not). COVID-19 Vaccine Availability
Updated on June 6th,2021
Sinovac (Available)
AstraZeneca (Available)
Johnsons & Johnsons
Moderna
On completing the form, I got this confirmation:
VACCINE BOOKING INFORMATION
Date
01 JAN 1970
Place

Time
Status
Wait for an email confirmation from oicddchotline@gmail.com
Make of that what you will.
As an aside, the spokesman on the CCSA daily bulletin just said that from today it is not possible for 'walk-in' registrations..
Wait and see I suppose.
Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
I registered and received an appointment date for the vaccine…….Jan. 1 1970……not joking :yahoo_mini:
Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
To answer Dodgems’ question - everyone 60+ AND those with certain medical conditions. I’m guessing that includes conditions where the immune system is suppressed such as diabetes and HIV. Therefore a sprightly 30yo with a medical condition is entitled to register as is a 61yo sound in wind and limb.
Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
Manforalleasons yes, see my post above.

I'm assuming these on-line registrations are just defaulting to Jan 1st just to get the applicants on the books.
Actual appointment dates can't be established yet because they don't know when they'll be receiving the vaccines.
Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
Today I received a call from one of Bangkok's Private Hospitals giving me date and time in late July. I assumed I would have to pay (which I would gladly do) and was surprised when told this would be provided by the government at no charge. The lady could not tell me yet which vaccine it will be.
Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
Those in Thailand who want the Moderna vaccine might see it available in October:

Re: Expat Vaccine Registration
Don't forget that the best vaccine for you and everyone else in Thailand is the first vaccine available to you.
