Thomas J Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 2 hours ago, webfact said: However, people wanting the Moderna jab would still have to register on "Mor Prom" as data must be collected. I guess I need someone to explain the OP. First, why would foreigners have to register with Mor Prom if they are getting their vaccine from a private hospital. Second, if they do have to register, how do they do it? It asks for your Thai ID. Does that mean every foreigner will need to go to the local Amphur and get a Pink Card? Now if Mor Prom contacts you, does that mean it is the government contacting you for an Astra Zeneca or Sinovac injection, or does it mean you have the opportunity to go to a private hospital to receive the Moderna, Johnson & Johson, or Pfizer vaccine assuming they hospitals have them.

Great - just get me a national Thai ID and Im all set! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that was before all the announcements and threats from the government. I didn't actually think it was still good to go. J&J is being apparently being used by the government already as my employee's sister, a government nurse received this vaccine. Hope your doctor is right that it will be available to the masses next month 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLW Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 That's good news. I would like to have it asap to be able to fly abroad in July and hopefully return to Thailand via Phuket with no quarantine. Price seems reasonable and I'm willing to pay it. First they must fix the registration issue for foreign IDs if they want us to use their system / application. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think AZ for foreigners will be that or higher. As for Thai it is said to be free, but then I think the government will ascertain getting money from government coffers and pay a high premium cost for all Thai jabs to SB. There is an underlying plan in this somewhere. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 There is no such thing as free. When you left your "Nanny" state to live here you gave all your "supplied by the Government" behind. I do not think price is an issue here. As to the Government treating the vaccine as a "restricted new drug", I understand. Case: Private hospital imports 10,000 doses. Many farang go & get the jab only to find that all the reactions very are severe & need hospitalization. Now the bun fight starts when a privare hospital v very large Pharma Company I think the FDA is right in doing all the importing., putting track & trace on every batch & then distributing to the PH. It is just the protection racket to protect the state coffers & Siam Biotech that starting to stink 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerbri Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 This must be the only country in the world trying to make a profit out of people’s misery? Then again I suppose no one is being forced to pay. There’s no chance I will be making a payment and having the Chinese version is definitely a no go. Looks like I will have to wait for the herd immunity to kick in. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting documentaries on Netflix, one I can think of is What the Health. be warned, it's an eye opener and is backed up with lots of evidence from leading professionals in their respective fields, millions of $'s in sponsorship to organisations like the Heart foundation, the Diabetes foundation and so on to get them to advise us what they want us to eat which is not proven to be good for us, it's actually the opposite, then you have millions in donations to politicians/campaigns to buy their politicians, with laws protecting the corporations against those speaking up, both industries working hand in hand to make billions of $'s while most of us know, know different, would we call this documentary a "conspiracy theory", best you watch it and make up your own mind. But it's always good to get as much information as you can to make an informed decision, conspiracy theorist can say what they like, but when you see, hear and do enough of your own research, you should be able to make an informed decision, that said, lots of labelled "conspiracy theorist" of the past, pre Covid have been right, so it can't be all one sided in my opinion, sure there are conspiracy theorists out there, there is also misinformation from governments, knowing who to believe is key. I totally agree. I have a hard time aligning myself on which side of the coin is best for me and my family, but there is a short window of time left. My theory is this was all a complete set up and now Governments have no choice but to run with it and big pharma. Hand in hand motion. Now if I go any farther pushing out my piece of my pie then I might be going on an extended 2 week holiday again. So I will refrain.. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most commonly reported side effects, which typically lasted several days, were pain at the injection site, tiredness, headache, muscle pain, chills, joint pain, swollen lymph nodes in the same arm as the injection, nausea and vomiting, and fever. Of note, more people experienced these side effects after the second dose than after the first dose, so it is important for vaccination providers and recipients to expect that there may be some side effects after either dose, but even more so after the second dose. This info is from the US FDA . So far I've found it all a pain in the ar*e and I haven't got as far as the jab yet 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
