Ventenio Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Maybe THREE SHOTS EVERY YEAR...... .who knows. probably two a year so add about 5000 to the yearly expense. and all 90-day check ins might ask to confirm the jab plus next year it could get more expensive enjoy falang.

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted May 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2021 3 hours ago, keith101 said: Common Side Effects from Moderna Vaccine. 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 . Who cares? It seems all the vaccines have side effects. As long as I do not die, I am fine. It is what it is. Although I have not had any sort of vaccinations in decades, it will likely be impossible to travel without one, so lets stop moaning, just man up, and do what we have to do. Moderna and Pfizer do appear to be the best options. I would not get the Sinojunk if they offered me 50,000 baht to take it. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLW Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 44 minutes ago, Surelynot said: They aren't going to fix it.......it is Thais first......foreigners when there is a surplus of vaccines no longer needed by Thais. One has nothing do to with another. Read the article again. The vaccinations on your own cost at private hospitals are completely separate from the government vaccination. The registration is just to count individuals as vaccinated and monitor side effects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First shot only arm pain 2nd Shot was slightly ill with a mild reaction for a day. 2 weeks later tested positive for Covid19 anti-bodies. I'll just leave that little cookie right here for y'all I had rashes around injection site for my first dose and slight fever for my second. I did hear some had high fever after the second dose but other than nothing scary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s also very important that the whole wide world get the vaccins that are available in the meantime. Thousands are still dying every week in lots of EU countries, and God help them, who knows the true statistics of India , African and South American countries that are so far behind. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why do foreigners even need to be vaccinated anyway (unless they want to travel abroad or are in a very high risk group). 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was doing what the government advised me to do if I couldn't register on MorProm, ie got to a hospital. But really I don't think it's ANY hospital, just one where you have been treated for whatever qualifying underlying problems you might have. I visited 4. I'm happy to say I did get registered at one private hospital but drew blanks at the other 3, including Banglamung and 2 other private hospitals, for a variety of reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyf Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 1 hour ago, Thomas J said: 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. It means you have to wait till they clarify, what's the hurry when there is no vaccine available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expat Tom Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Thailand is known for medical tourism. That implies non-Thai people. So, put 2 and 2 together....if you are not Thai, the Thai hospitals who make a fortune administering to non-Thai people will see this as just another product or service to sell. Having said that, I am happy with my medical experiences here in Thailand and will gladly visit my favorite international hospital again for my covid vaccine needs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that will be after the vaccination of 65 million Thais. They will be vaccinated with the Astra vaccine, that they haven't yet begun to manufacture, and then to manufacture Astra the company That makes the vaccine will probably be on the waiting list for the supply of the raw materials to make it, behind India. And India will also be on the waiting list as the EU is currently suing Astra over supply issues. Maybe space X will come to the rescue with supplies from Mars. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
