    Re: Expat Vaccine Registration

    I managed to register with the Memorial Hospital online, although I doubt if I shall hear from them. BHP refused to accept online registration, as did the International Hospital. In any case I plan to wait for the Moderna vaccine, and I doubt that it will be available before October at best and then there will be a free for all rush to access it. Wait and see is all I can do really.

    Exactly.

    I'll wait for Moderna, unless Pfizer or J&J come along first.

    As far as I'm concerned, the government has got itself tied in a Brazilian choke-hold right now. No two Ministers are saying the same thing regarding the vaccine rollout, and it's clear, just by reading this constant flow of misleading and contradictory statements in the newspapers, that they're all working to their own personal agendas.

    The fact that the vaccine rollout isn't supported by a Vaccine Distribution Plan that's available for public viewing should come as no surprise to anyone, considering all the opposing forces at play right now.

    Hell, I'm just an expat over here on a temporary visa. Either I get the vaccine over here, or I'll fly home and get it there. What they do with the rest of this mess they created is up to them.

    I’m sure the virus will patiently wait until Dodgems is vaccinated by his vaccine of choice

    Re: Expat Vaccine Registration

    According to the article linked below, Thailand now has to purchase AstraZenica vaccine from S. Korea in order to keep its promise to start mass vaccinations in June. Note, that the first promise was to begin mass vaccinations this month (May) which didn't happen.

    Apparently the Thai-owned company (Siam bioscience) which was supposed to start making the vaccine can't fulfill the request at this time for some reason...(I'm trying not to laugh as I type this). Also, those quoted in the article claim that the only vaccine that Thailand has processed an urgent purchase order for to date is Sinovac from China.

    This will undoubtedly cause a further delay in mass vaccinations.

    Just too much fun!

    south korea has its own problems securing vaccines for "its" people...giving to thailand will take "time" as they vaccinate their own people...
